About this resource
This quiz focuses on the fundamental science concepts of chemical and physical changes, specifically designed for 5th grade students. The questions assess students' understanding of how matter transforms through different processes, using familiar examples like baking, mixing household substances, and observing materials at the microscopic level. Students need to distinguish between changes that create new substances with different properties (chemical changes) and changes that only alter the form or appearance of matter without changing its chemical composition (physical changes). The quiz reinforces vocabulary related to solutions, mixtures, and states of matter while connecting everyday activities like cooking and construction to scientific principles. Students must apply their knowledge of chemical reactions, such as the acid-base reaction between vinegar and baking soda that produces gas, and understand that baking involves chemistry through the irreversible transformation of ingredients into new compounds. Created by Gina Ritchie, a Science teacher in US who teaches grade 5. This quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool to gauge student comprehension after viewing the Magic School Bus episode "Ready, Set, Dough" and studying chemical versus physical changes. Teachers can use this as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge, a guided practice exercise during instruction, or homework to reinforce learning objectives. The quiz effectively supports differentiated instruction by presenting concepts through multiple contexts, from microscopic observations of common substances to real-world applications in cooking and construction. This assessment aligns with NGSS standard 5-PS1-4, which requires students to conduct investigations to determine whether mixing substances results in new substances, and supports the cross-cutting concept of patterns by helping students recognize the characteristics that distinguish chemical changes from physical changes across various scenarios.
