Choose among the materials and activities offered to build a lesson on matter that
allows students to recognize that matter can undergo a change in form without
undergoing a change in chemical properties. The time will depend on the activities,
strategies, and reinforcement activities selected.

LESSON LEAD IN /
OPENING :
ELICIT
OPTIONS:
Opening Your Lesson (10 minutes)
Begin the lesson by assessing students' prerequisite and prior knowledge.
Prerequisite Knowledge
Definitions of matter and mass
Difference between mass and weight
Identify and differentiate between physical and chemical properties of matter
Teacher Background
Accessing Prior Knowledge
Ask: List some characteristics of a piece of paper. Sample answers: It is thin; it
crumples easily; it is easily torn or cut with scissors.
Ask: Give an example of how a piece of paper can undergo a chemical
reaction. Sample answer: It will burn.
ENGAGE
OPTIONS:
Activities and Discussion
Discussion What's New? (15 minutes)
Quick Lab Physical or Chemical Change? (20 minutes)
Lab Changing Sugar

Students observe physical and chemical changes through crushing or burning sugar.
EXPLORE
OPTIONS:
Labs and Demos
Exploration Lab Investigating Reaction Rates (45 minutes)
ESL Reaction Rates Lab

Students make as many observations as they can for a candle: before it is lit (5
minutes), while it is burning (10-15 minutes), and after it goes out (5 minutes).
Afterwards, the students draw and label their observations of the candle as physical or
chemical changes.

INSTRUCTION :
ELABORATE
OPTIONS:
Differentiated Instruction
Basic Energy and Change
Synthesizing Key Topics (15 minutes)
Write the word energy on the board.
Ask: How is energy related to change ? Lead students to infer that both physical
change and chemical change involve energy. Hold up an antacid or denture cleaner
tablet.
Ask: How would you produce a physical change in the tablet? Break up the tablet and
explain that the smaller pieces are still the same matter as the original tablet. Next,
place a similar tablet in a glass of water and have students observe the "bubbling"
action as the tablet reacts with the water. Elicit that the bubbles are the result of a
chemical change that produces a gas. Explain that the energy involved in this change is
used to rearrange the particles that make up the original matter.
Advanced Turn Up the Heat!
Chemical Change (varied)
Multimedia Presentation Raising or lowering the temperature affects a chemical
reaction. Divide the class into groups. Ask each individual in the group to conduct
research on how temperature affects chemical changes. Then working together, Tell
each group to combine their efforts into a single multimedia presentation to show the
class. Multimedia Presentation rubric
ELL Recognizing Chemical Change
Comparing Chemical and Physical Change (varied)
Booklet Direct students individually or in small groups to do research about the
"signs" that often accompany chemical changes-odor production, gas formation,
precipitate formation, and temperature change. They should find illustrations of these
signs. Help them organize their information in a Booklet FoldNote to display around the
class for others to view. Booklet FoldNote support.
Review Physical/Chemical Changes Notes
Students review meanings of physical and chemical changes with a word box and
pictures.
Review Game Physical/Chemical Card Game
Using what the students know about physical and chemical changes, they are to place
each card into the correct category and then record their data in the provided chart.

LESSON CLOSURE :
EXTEND
OPTIONS:
Choose one or more of the following activities to reinforce the concepts students
learned in this lesson.

Activity Changes in Matter (15 minutes)
Synthesizing Key Topics

Think Fast After completing the lesson, provide short statements or pose questions
that require short-answer or true/false responses from the students. For example, the
response to the question "What kind of change results in the formation of a solid from
mixing two liquids?" should be "chemical change." Repeat the list, allowing student
volunteers to provide responses.
Graphic Organizer
Synthesizing Key Topics (10-15 minutes)

Four Square After students have studied the lesson, ask them to complete Four
Square organizers for physical change and chemical change . Ask students to write
the term in the center oval of the organizer. Then have them fill out each corner
space. Four Square support
Life Science Connection Introducing Key Topics (15 min)
Discussion
Numerous physical and chemical changes are constantly taking place in the human
body. For example, muscles relax and contract, and food goes through a number of
physical and chemical changes during the process of digestion. Generate a class
discussion about some of the changes. Have students come up with examples of these
changes and determine which type they are. Class Discussion rubric
Technology Connection
Introducing Key Topics (varied)
Research Project Almost everyone likes fireworks displays. Physical and chemical
changes are involved in every aspect, from the combining of the various components,
to the ignition, to the brilliant display of light and sound. Have students research the
step-by-step activity of putting together such a display, emphasizing the physical and
chemical changes involved.

As the teacher, after each step, do not provide an explanation. Instead, ask the
students for their observations and explanations. Do not say if they are correct or not,
just keep asking "why?"
