How do Scientists Identify a Substance (Matter)?

Why do scientists classify items?

In this simple investigation you will observe and record the physical attributes of a specific item. You will need to make sure your data is not only ACCURATE but that you pay close attention to the specific details of your item.

Lab DirectionsProblem: After making careful observations and recording detailed characteristics, can the same item be later identified by its unique qualities?

Materials: 1. 1 Unique item bag per table (each team member 

receives one item out of 4 in the bag)2. cm ruler – cut from pg. 33. Pencil4. Colored pencils5. Lab sheets

Lab DirectionsJobs:  Fill in the names of the team members into the appropriate job description. 

PLEASE DO NOT HURT OR MARK YOU ITEM IN ANY WAY!
