RMSC Delivers: Experiences at Your School

This is our coolest outreach yet. Really, it is! Your class will thrill at the use of Liquid Nitrogen (-196° C), as they learn how temperature affects energy and changes matter from solid to liquid to gas. Watch your students’ amazement turn to understanding as they begin to explore and predict the outcome of experiments with objects exposed to extreme temperature.

New York State P-12 Science Learning Standards (NYSSLS) & Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS):

  • 2-PS1-1. Plan and conduct an investigation to describe and classify different kinds of materials by their observable properties.
  • 2-PS1-4. Construct an argument with evidence that some changes caused by heating or cooling can be reversed and some cannot.
  • 5-PS1-3. Make observations and measurements to identify materials based on their properties.
  • MS-PS1-4. Develop a model that predicts and describes changes in particle motion, temperature, and phase (state) of a substance when thermal energy is added or removed.
