Standard 1: Students will understand that water changes state as it moves through the water cycle. Describe the relationship between heat energy, evaporation and condensation of water on Earth. 

Ed-Tech Standards:

Standard 7- Use telecommunications and on-line resources (email, online discussions, web environments) to participate in collaborative problem solving activities to develop solutions or products for audiences inside and outside the classroom. 

Iste Standards: 2, 

Using this tool Today's Meet was pretty fun. It was super easy, and a fast tool. I had a professor here at college use this tool multiple times in an online class because of how easy it was and also because of how great it can get students thinking, interacting, and discussing, without actually being in the classroom at one time. So I was a little familiar with it, and that made it even more fun to be on the other side of it, being the one creating the discussion. I really liked this tool and could see me using it in my classroom. Students can pick up how to use this tool with simple instructions. Another reason I like this tool, was because it gets students seeing others response, that maybe they had not considered or even thought of before. A great way for students to help teach other students. 
So I opened a classroom discussion for my class to talk about the difference between solids, liquids, and gasses. The students are to observe one of these changes (solid to a liquid, liquid to a gas, liquid to a solid, solid to a gas, gas to a solid, gas to a liquid) If someone has already said that example they are to go observe a different one (so we do not have everyone using the melting ice as a solid to a liquid as there example)
