Physical Changes and States of Matter- Two
Third graders explore the concept of evaporation as they observe how the water level changes in a cup that is left out. Working in groups they observe physical changes in a group of everyday items. They record the changes in shape, size,...
Curated OER
Experimenting with Physical Changes
Fourth graders explore physical changes. They discuss that physical change is a change in size, shape, or state of matter of a substance. Students explore what change takes place when two substances can dissolve each other. They observe...

It's OK to Reach Your Boiling Point!
Students view a video which introduces them to density and the states of matter. They experiment, collect data, and graph the boiling/freezing points of several edible items...and then make brownies!
Curated OER
Matter
First graders study and define matter. They observe and identify states of matter along with common attributes and study how matter can change form or change its state depending on temperature.
Curated OER
State of Matter - Atoms
High schoolers examine and discuss how atoms change from solid to liquid to gas. They inflate a balloon by melting ice that converts to steam, and discuss the results.
Curated OER
Melt the Ice
Students examine and discuss how water changes from a liquid to a solid to a gas. They explore this concept by having an ice cube race, competing to see which group can change the solid water back into liquid water first.
Curated OER
Classifying Matter Game
Students identify the different states of matter. For this chemistry lesson, students differentiate the physical properties of the three states. They apply what they learned by playing a team game at the end of the lesson.
Curated OER
Liquids and Solids
Young scholars identify and categorize states of matter. In this states of matter lesson, students study the pictures and sort them as liquids and solids.
Curated OER
Water & Ice
Students investigate the properties of water. In this states of water activity, students explore how water goes from liquid to solid and back to liquid again. Students use measurement, observation, and communication to describe the change.
Curated OER
Gases
In this gases worksheet, students review the 3 states of matter, the types of molecular motion, and the characteristics of gases. This worksheet has 30 problems to solve.
Curated OER
Solids and Liquids
In this melting points worksheet, students study the melting points table of the solid and liquid states of matter. Students use the table to answer the 7 questions.
Curated OER
Chemistry Wk 2
In this chemistry worksheet, students calculate the freezing point of a given solution. Students calculate the final temperature and state of the water in a given problem. Students solve several problems provided.
Curated OER
Chemistry Practice
For this chemistry practice worksheet, students select the correct response to the given questions. Students apply knowledge about the states of matter, finding vapor pressure and atmospheric pressure.
Curated OER
Science Words
For this general science worksheet, students find 32 science words reviewing states of matter and types of substances. Students may self correct by selecting the link at the bottom of the page.
