“can you turn these screenshots into a worksheet?”
Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use this as a short review after introducing physical and chemical changes, working through it in about 20-30 minutes as a warm-up or exit review.
- Discussion question: Why is melting ice a physical change, while vinegar and milk making plastic is a chemical change? What evidence tells you a new substance formed?
- Scaffold for struggling readers: Pre-read the definitions aloud, and have students underline key words like 'heat,' 'shape,' or 'substance' before matching.
- Extension for advanced students: Ask them to write one original example of each type of change and explain whether it is endothermic or exothermic.
- Estimated time: about 25 minutes including a brief class check of answers.
