About this reader

This NGSS-aligned science passage for middle school explains the thermodynamic nature of sublimation, showing how a solid changes directly into gas through an endothermic process. Students will learn why energy is absorbed during sublimation, using dry ice as a real-world example. The passage supports NGSS standard MS-PS1-4 and reinforces critical thinking and reading comprehension with multiple-choice questions that test understanding, inference, and scientific vocabulary. Ideal for classroom use or independent study, this resource strengthens students' knowledge of physical science and enhances their ability to analyze scientific texts. The content builds a strong foundation in phase changes and thermodynamics aligned with middle school learning goals.
