Physical Science worksheets

Let pupils see an effect before practising physical science

This category includes materials and their properties, changes in materials, forces, energy, electricity, states of matter, light, sound, and magnets. Start with a safe observation or exploration, then use a worksheet to name, compare, or explain what happened.

• Materials and matter: let pupils handle, look at, or compare safe objects before naming a property or state.
• Forces and energy: try a push, a pull, or a familiar use of energy before choosing an answer.
• Light, sound, electricity, and magnets: use familiar examples and restate safety rules before the worksheet.
