No no no, not what’s THE matter. What’s MATTER? In this episode of Crash Course Kids, Sabrina talks about what matter is and the three states of matter: Solid, Liquid, and Gas. She also does a quick experiment that you can do at home to prove that air is matter.
This first series is based on 5th-grade science. We’re super excited and hope you enjoy Crash Course Kids!
