Learning goals
- We are learning to understand that different materials can be combined for a particular purpose.
- We are learning to understand that everyday materials can be physically changed in a variety of ways.
- We are learning to investigate changes of state between solids and liquids caused by adding or removing heat.
- We are learning to understand that solids, liquids and gases have different observable properties and behave in different ways.
- We are learning to understand that solids, liquids and gases have different observable properties and behave in different ways.
- We are learning that changes to materials can be reversible or irreversible.
Curriculum alignment
AC9S3U04
9
Investigate the observable properties of solids and liquids and how adding or removing heat energy leads to a change of state
AC9S6U04
9
Compare reversible changes, including dissolving and changes of state, and irreversible changes, including cooking and rusting that produce new substances
AC9S5U04
9
Explain observable properties of solids, liquids and gases by modelling the motion and arrangement of particles
AC9S2U03
9
Recognise that materials can be changed physically without changing their material composition and explore the effect of different actions on materials including bending, twisting, stretching and breaking into smaller pieces
