This is an interactive PowerPoint used to deliver states of matter. The particles are animated to show each state and also each heating/cooling process. It is navigated from the first slide. Included is a free help sheet for students to have in front of them to aid learning.

Clear graphics. This resources shows liquid particles clearly (many other resources show the liquid particle too far apart)

Excellent animated particles, made explaining changes of state much easier with my yr 7 science class.

The help sheet is excellent without being overpowered with text. The Powerpoint is great, very illustrative but the initial diagram would be best suited at the very end as a summary.

Excellent set of animations. The first diagram looks complicated but is explained well by the rest of the resource. This would work well as a teaching aid for use alongside a related worksheet.

Excellent diagram, especially for liquid- nice to see a 2d diagram that shows the 3d aspect of the particles in a liquid
