Song Lyrics

Scientific Method Song
Scientific Method 
First you make an observation of the world around 
Take notes and record all the things that you found
Then you ask a simple question something that you want to learn 
Then you form a hypothesis to explain what you observed 
Then you make a prediction about how it's gonna go 
Do a test with a control and variable 
Then you analyze the data and draw a conclusion 
Do the scientific method to avoid all confusion 
Make an observation 
Ask a question 
Form a hypothesis 
And make a prediction 
Do a test or experimentation 
Analyze data and draw a conclusion 
Scientific Method

Water Cycle Song
The Water Cycle 
Takes the water and moves it 
Up and Down and all around the Earth 
Evaporation comes 
When the heat from the Sun 
Warms up all the groundwater 
Then it turns to water vapor 
Condensation takes over 
It goes up to the clouds 
Water vapor cools down 
And it changes to a liquid, now 
Precipitation happens 
When the drops get big 
It falls like Rain, Snow, Sleet, and Hail upon my head 
I know it's the water cycle happening again 
Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation

Planets Song
Mercury is the closest planet to the sun 
Venus comes next it's the hottest one 
Earth comes third the only life that we know 
Mars has the largest canyon and volcano 
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune 
The gassy planet Jupiter, the largest you will find
Saturn has rings around the outside 
Uranus is funny ‘cause it spins on its side 
Neptune looks blue, the coldest of its kind 
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune 
Okay get ready 
We're gonna say all the planets really, really, really fast 
Can you keep up? 
We're gonna say all the planets from the first to the last 
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune

Moon Song
The Earth’s Moon orbits all around us 
It reflects the light from the sun 
These are the phases of the Moon 
When the Moon is in between 
The Earth and the Sun 
It’s a New Moon phase 
And it looks like it’s gone 
When the Earth is in between 
The Sun and the Moon 
It’s a Full Moon phase 
And it looks like a balloon 
The Moon goes through eight different phases 
The Moon looks different, but it never really changes 
It depends on the position of the Earth, Moon and Sun 
Come on everybody make the lunar cycle fun 
New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous 
Full Moon, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, Waning Crescent

Matter Song
Matter has mass and takes up space 
It’s everything you see, touch and taste 
Matter is made of tiny molecules and atoms 
Elements with protons, neutrons and electrons 
Matter is the stuff that is all around 
Scientists have found some things that don’t count 
Matter cannot be a form of energy 
Like wind, sound, light or heat 
Matter has mass and takes up space 
Solid, liquid, gas are the three different states 
Matter has properties that tell what it’s like 
It goes through physical and chemical changes, that’s right! 
Solid, liquid, gas are the three different states 
These phases of matter change what the matter makes
If water’s solid it’s ice, if it’s liquid it’s water 
If the water is a gas then it turns to water vapor 
Melting is going from a solid to a liquid 
Evaporating is going from a liquid to a gas 
Condensation is going from a gas to a liquid 
Freezing is going from a liquid to a solid 
Matter has properties that tell what it’s like 
We make careful observations to help us describe 
Mass, Volume, Density, and Pressure 
Size, Shape, Texture, and Temperature 
Properties of matter can be chemical 
If oxidation takes place or if something is flammable 
Matter can never be destroyed or created 
A new substance can form with a chemical reaction 
In a physical change, the object stays the same 
You can fold it, bend it, cut it, but the object still remains 
A physical change doesn’t really change the matter 
The matter just moves from one state to another 
In a chemical change, a new substance is created 
You can rust it, burn it, cook it, but you can’t reverse it 
In a chemical change something new will form 
Energy is given off or energy is absorbed
