About this resource
This 5th-grade science quiz comprehensively covers fundamental concepts about the particulate nature of matter, focusing on atoms, molecules, and their behavior in different states. Students need to understand that all matter is composed of tiny building blocks called atoms and molecules that are too small to see individually, and that these particles determine the properties we observe in everyday materials. The questions assess students' grasp of molecular attraction forces, the distinction between pure substances and mixtures, and how particle movement changes with temperature. Students must also demonstrate their ability to identify evidence supporting the particle model of matter, such as understanding why we can observe the effects of air molecules even though we cannot see the individual particles themselves. Created by Robyn Landry, a Science teacher in US who teaches grade 5. This quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool for teachers introducing atomic theory and the particle model of matter to elementary students. The practice format makes it ideal for homework assignments, review sessions before summative assessments, or as a warm-up activity to gauge student understanding of key vocabulary terms like atoms, molecules, substances, and mixtures. Teachers can use this quiz to identify misconceptions about particle behavior and molecular interactions before moving into more complex topics about chemical vs. physical changes. The questions align with NGSS 5-PS1-1 (developing models to describe that matter is made of particles too small to see) and 5-PS1-3 (making observations to provide evidence that heating or cooling can cause changes in matter).
