For this fifth grade activity, young scholars explore how matter changes during a chemical reaction.

For this experiment for Grade Five, learners develop an understanding that chemical changes in matter do not affect the actual mass of the matter.

This site provides a lesson plan using candy making to demonstrate physical and chemical changes in matter. Includes directions to make caramel and rock candy.

In this experiment, three reactions are performed in a sealed Ziploc bag so that they can be observed. Students identify whether physical or chemical change has taken place.

A comprehensive lesson plan site that contains a number of activities to aid in teaching about the states and properties of matter and the difference between a physical and chemical change.
