Here’s a detailed lesson plan for a 3rd-grade science class focusing on the
states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas.
Lesson Plan: States of Matter - Solid, Liquid, and Gas
Grade Level: 3rd Grade
Subject: Science
Duration: 1 Hour
Objectives:
By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:
Identify and describe the three states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. Provide
examples of each state of matter from their everyday lives. Understand the
basic properties of solids, liquids, and gases.
Materials Needed:
Whiteboard and markers Pictures or flashcards of solids, liquids, and gases
Samples of solids (e.g., rock, toy), liquids (e.g., water, juice), and gases (e.g.,
air in a balloon) Chart paper and markers for group work Simple worksheets
for assessment
Standards:
Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for 3rd Grade
Lesson Outline:
Introduction (10 minutes)
Begin with a question: “What is matter?” and discuss what students think
matter is. Introduce the three states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. Show
pictures or flashcards of each state and ask students to identify them.
Direct Instruction (15 minutes)
Explain the characteristics of each state of matter:Solids: Have a definite
shape and volume (e.g., a rock). Liquids: Have a definite volume but take the
shape of their container (e.g., water). Gases: Have no definite shape or
volume and fill their container (e.g., air).
Use simple language and examples that are relatable to 3rd graders.
Guided Practice (15 minutes)
Divide students into small groups and give each group samples of solids,
liquids, and gases. Ask them to sort the samples into three categories: solid,
liquid, and gas. Have each group share their findings with the class and
discuss why they categorized them that way.

Independent Practice (15 minutes)
Distribute simple worksheets that include:A matching exercise where
students match pictures of solids, liquids, and gases with their names. A fill-
in-the-blank section where students complete sentences about the properties
of each state of matter.
Allow students to work independently or in pairs.
Conclusion (5 minutes)
Recap the key points of the lesson. Ask students to share one example of
each state of matter from their home or school. Encourage students to think
about where they see solids, liquids, and gases in their daily lives.
Assessment:
Evaluate students based on their participation in group activities. Review
completed worksheets for understanding. Observe students during
discussions to assess their grasp of the concepts.
Extensions:
For students who finish early, provide coloring sheets related to states of
matter. Conduct a simple experiment, such as melting ice to show the
change from solid to liquid.
This lesson plan is designed to be engaging and interactive for 3rd-grade
students, helping them understand the basic concepts of solids, liquids, and
gases. Feel free to adjust any sections to better suit your classroom
dynamics!
