Description
Overview
Matter & Chemical Change in Grade 7 Science (British Columbia framework) helps learners connect particle models to real-world physical and chemical changes. This unit includes 15 worksheets to support targeted practice across states of matter, physical vs. chemical change, and evidence-based conservation of mass.

Skills & Standards
Aligned to the British Columbia framework, this unit emphasizes disciplinary core ideas about matter and chemical change and uses crosscutting concepts such as systems, models, and conservation. Students practice using particle models to explain states of matter and phase changes, then apply evidence-based reasoning to separate physical properties from chemical properties. Throughout the worksheets, learners interpret data, connect observations to change indicators, and strengthen claims with scientific evidence (for example, when deciding whether a change is chemical or physical). Key analytical skills include predicting outcomes from given conditions, interpreting reaction-type questions, and using mass measurements to reason about conservation of mass in closed systems. Students also build modeling skills by translating diagram information into written explanations about how particles behave during changes in matter.
Perfect For
- Teachers seeking structured instruction
- Sub plans
- Homework or review
- Intervention or centers
- Assessment preparation
How to Use
Plan for about 1–3 weeks of instruction, depending on pacing needs and when your class covers states of matter and reaction concepts. Use short warm-ups at the start of each session (for example, particle-model or physical-property prompts) to activate prior knowledge. Follow with guided practice using one worksheet at a time, then finish with brief exit tickets that ask students to justify a classification (physical vs. chemical) using specific evidence from the day’s questions. For end-of-unit review, combine the conservation and closed-systems worksheets with a final checklist-style reflection to consolidate evidence-based explanations.
