When scientists look at organic compounds, they notice some patterns and differences that can help them group them together. They look at the number of carbon atoms, what other elements are attached to those carbon atoms, and how the atoms are arranged. Based on these patterns and differences, scientists have grouped organic compounds into different categories.

Physical changes in states of matter is a topic that falls under the branch of physical science known as chemistry. It focuses on understanding the different states of matter (solid, liquid, and gas) and how they can undergo changes without altering their chemical composition. In the Montessori curriculum, chemistry is introduced through water, which is an excellent component to demonstrate many physical changes in matter, such as condensation, evaporation, deposition, freezing, boiling, and melting.

Everything around us is made up of tiny particles called atoms. Atoms are like the building blocks of matter. Chemical bonds are the forces that hold atoms together in a molecule or a compound. Like Lego blocks snap together to make a structure, atoms join together through chemical bonds to form different substances.

For example, if children are solving a math problem, they need to know what type of number they are working with in order to choose the correct operation.

Graphing is a valuable skill for children to learn and can be introduced as early as late primary years when using our new material, Bar Graph Complete Set! Learning to graph helps children understand data and relationships and can also help them develop their spatial reasoning skills. It does so by showing data using visual representations. Graphs can be used to show how things change over time or to compare different things.
