Skills & Standards

---

Each worksheet supports Alberta science expectations through crosscutting concepts such as systems and system models, cause and effect, and structure and function. Students revisit disciplinary core ideas including particle theory, properties of matter, and chemical reactions. Prompts encourage modeling with particle diagrams and system boundaries, then guide analytical reasoning to sort claims from evidence. Learners practice evidence-based explanations by citing details from the reading to answer “how do you know?” questions and to refine scientific vocabulary through short, repeated tasks.

Perfect For

---

• Teachers seeking structured instruction
• Sub plans
• Homework or review
• Intervention or centers
• Assessment preparation

How to Use

---

This lesson bundle works well as a multi-day pacing sequence for a matter-and-change focus (for example, one daily reading per class over 3 weeks or one every other day to match your timetable). Have students read independently, complete the response items, then use a brief share-out to confirm evidence-based explanations. For differentiation, offer sentence starters for analytical reasoning and use a quick teacher checklist to target common misconceptions (like confusing physical vs. chemical changes or forgetting system boundaries). You can also rotate worksheets through centers for small-group support.
