Solid or Liquid?

Know solids keep their shape and liquids pour.

Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. 10 minutes or less.

For grown-ups

Your child knows solids keep their shape and liquids pour. We suggest reading it together.

What children learn in Level 39

A solid keeps its shape. A rock is a solid. An ice cube is a solid. A block is a solid.
A liquid pours. Water is a liquid. Milk is a liquid. Juice is a liquid.
Tip a cup of water, and it pours out. Tip a block, and it stays a block.
Your turn! Is juice a solid or a liquid? A liquid! It pours.
Try it with a grown-up! At snack time, name each thing: solid or liquid?
