Classify physical changes — free printable Grade 5 Science worksheet

Fifth graders classify types of physical changes to matter — such as cutting, bending, and dissolving — in this Physical Science worksheet, distinguishing changes that alter shape or size from those that change state. Teachers can use it to deepen understanding of the difference between physical and chemical changes as students prepare for more advanced chemistry concepts. It works well as a structured review or a pre-assessment warm-up.

Learning objectives

  • Classify changes to matter as physical based on observable evidence
  • Distinguish physical changes from chemical changes using defining criteria
  • Give examples of physical changes and describe what changed in each case
