Free printable Grade 3 science worksheet for "Classify properties of materials" — practice matter and materials. No-prep, print or assign online.

Properties of materials are classified and sorted in this Grade 3 Physical Science worksheet, where students examine matter and materials through characteristics such as color, hardness, flexibility, and conductivity. Teachers can use it within a matter and materials unit to bridge everyday observation with scientific categorization, reinforcing the idea that properties determine how a material is used. Developing classification skills at this level prepares students for more nuanced chemistry and materials science later.
