Summary:
"A burning log, a rotting banana, a rusting bicycle...all are examples of chemical changes. In this accessible text, readers are introduced to the basics of chemical changes. Easy-to-follow explanations cover matter, forms, properties, and changes. Further detail introduces how to make chemical changes and how to recognize them. Color photos, fast facts, and an engaging activity expand and reinforce the new ideas. The book supports Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards, correlating directly with the NGSS Grade 2 standard to "classify different kinds of materials by their observable properties."-- Provided by publisher.
