Physical and Chemical Changes of Matter

A physical change is a change of matter from one state (form) to another.

Examples: 

• ice cream melting
• liquid water freezing and becoming solid ice
• cutting wood
• clouds forming in the sky 

A chemical change is a change that forms a different kind of matter.

Examples: 

• baking a cake
• burning wood
• a nail rusting
• photosynthesis

Here's a really cool video from Scholastic on Physical and Chemical Changes of Matter. 

Plus there is a follow-up online multiple choice test that the kids can take after watching the video.
