Teacher Name: Mrs.Melike Koc

Grade Level: 9th Grade, Physical Science

Subject/Topic: Properties of Matter-Chemical and Physical Changes

TimeLine: Weekly Plan- We will be spending a week to cover Chemical and Physical

Changes-Additional time may require due to the demonstrations outcome. In this plan you

will be seeing one day (45 min portion of the day) of the week.

Description: Covering examples of chemical and physical change and identify the

differences between them.

Ohio Content Standards: 6th Grade Physical Science Standards-

Describe that in a chemical change new substances are formed with different properties

than the original substance (e.g., rusting, burning).

Describe that in a physical change (e.g., state, shape and size) the chemical properties of

a substance remain unchanged.

Describe that chemical and physical changes occur all around us (e.g., in the human

body, cooking and industry).

Objects have many observable properties, including size, weight, shape, color,

temperature, and the ability to react with other substances. Those properties can be

measured using tools, such as rulers, balances, and thermometers.

Materials can exist in different statessolid, liquid, and gas. Some common materials,

such as water, can be changed from one state to another by heating or cooling
Lesson objectives (written by teacher) I can statements;

Students will be able to:

Distinguish between physical and chemical changes by comparing their observations.

Describe what happens during a physical and a chemical change.

Identify possible clues that a chemical/physical change has taken place.

Essential Questions

What are physical and chemical properties?

What are the differences and similarities of physical and chemical changes?

 Introduction (Set Induction/Anticipatory Set + Specific Content to be taught)

We will begin the class by asking some questions about changes. We would spend the first 5-

10 minutes of class discussing the difference of physical and chemical change. I will have

two piece of paper first piece will be torn, and then second will be burned. Students will be

asked what they have seen and which change can reversible which not. Then we will start

the presentation. (See attached)

Instructional Activities and Procedures - 15 points

The instructor goes over the PowerPoint presentation. Students are expected to take

notes from the entire presentation.

Towards the end of presentation, there will be a few demonstrations to show

students.(demo names are below)Ask the students to decide whether the

demonstration is reversible (physical change ) or irreversible (chemical change). Then

explain the answers of each. The demonstrations are:

Tear up a piece of paper.

Knit a yarn to form sweater.

Dissolve a spoon of salt in a beaker of water.

Burn a small piece of torn up paper.

Pour a small amount of the salt water into another beaker and heat it until the

water evaporates and leaves the salt.

Place some vinegar in a flask or coke bottle. Use the funnel to put some baking

soda into the balloon. Fasten the balloon over the mouth of the flask. Lift the

balloon up so that the baking soda falls down into the vinegar.
Modifications/Differentiated Instruction

Teacher identifies the individual needs and necessities of each student and addresses them

in appropriate time and situations. These differentiations are:

By making pre-assessments of content, teacher can easily find out the background

knowledge of the students. Thats because beginning of the classes the teacher asks

questions to have them figure out whether the demonstrations is a chemical or physical

change.
