In this unit, students use what they know about the relationship between energy and matter to investigate phenomena of how energy powers the cycling of Earth materials. They begin with this lesson on modeling the Earth processes that form different kinds of rock. This page provides an overview of this lesson.
In this unit, students explore the natural processes that cause Earth’s surface to change over time, analyzing how energy causes Earth’s matter to transform and cycle from one form to another. In this lesson, they trace phenomena of how energy is transferred in chemical reactions, which allows scientists to produce ethanol to use as an alternative energy source. This page showcases each component of this lesson.
In this unit, students use the phenomenon of why certain materials (such as the materials that make up a baseball) are useful for a particular function to explore the relationship between matter and energy phenomena. In this lesson students manipulate the properties of a polymer bouncy ball by changing the amounts of reactants in a chemical reaction. This page highlights parts of this lesson.
In this unit, students explore the science phenomena of interactions between energy and matter, analyzing how matter can only change when enough energy is present. In this lesson, they investigate the structure of molecules, relating this structure to the matter’s properties. This page is a high-level extract of this lesson.

In this unit, students use what they know about the relationship between energy and matter to investigate how energy powers the cycling of Earth materials. In this lesson, they analyze the phenomena of processes that form fossil fuels, which determine how these natural resources are distributed around the planet. This page highlights all the parts of this lesson.
