httpinfofldoeorgdocusharedswebGetDocument-6515dps-2012-140apdf Atomic theory is not tested in 5th grade so do not emphasize the definitions of atoms molecules and compounds Students will need to know that matter is composed of tiny particles too small to see with merely eyes

Physical change versus chemical change used to be emphasized more prior to the new standards However the new standards now focus on how those changes are affected by stimuli such as temperature stirring mixing etc BBC website on physica and chemical changes httpwwwcpalmsorgRESOURCESURLresourcebaraspxResourceID=mZMvhdBp5X0=D
