This bundle includes the written portion, lab portion, and the rubric for the test at the end of our Properties of Matter unit. The test is made to be application and problem solving based, not recall. We realized the world is in need of thinkers and problem solvers not regurgitators of information, so we revamped our tests to guide in that direction. Students must use the concepts of mass, volume, density, weight, and gravity to complete the problems on the test and compete the lab.
