Third graders dig into particle behavior and matter vocabulary. Fill-in-the-blank items cover particles that vibrate in place inside a solid, a gas having no definite volume, water vapor produced by boiling, mass measured on a balance, and condensation as the gas-to-liquid change. Students also identify a metal spoon as a solid and explain why oil takes the shape of its bowl.

A four-pair matching activity sorts honey, a wooden block, oxygen, and lemonade into solid, gas, slow-flowing liquid, and easy-flowing liquid. The blend grows precise science language alongside real-world thinking.

★ Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1) Particles in a solid vibrate in place but do not move around.
2) A gas has no definite shape and no definite volume.
3) When liquid water boils, it turns into water vapor.
4) You can measure the mass of matter using a balance or scale.
5) A metal spoon is a solid because it keeps its shape.
6) The change from gas to liquid is called condensation.
7) Cooking oil poured into a bowl takes the shape of the bowl.
8) Temperature tells us how hot or cold something is.
9) Particles in a solid are packed very tightly together.
