Matter
Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass. All substances and materials can be called matter.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object.
Solids, liquids and gases, are made of atoms, molecules and/or ions. These particles are made of 3 phases (solids, liquids and gases). In solids, liquids and gases, the particles in solids vibrate/jiggle in place but do not move from place to place. Liquids move about and slide past each other while gas vibrates and moves freely at high speeds.

Here are some examples of solids, liquids and gases;
Solids: sand, ice and wood
Liquids: milk, rain and syrup
Gas: steam, helium and air
Here is a game you can play to see if you are able to classify by giving examples of Solids, Liquids and Gases.
