Section outline

  • Learning Outcome:
    Investigating the behaviour of solids, liquids and gases to describe the density and formation of different planets. 

    Success Criteria:

    1) Compare the density of solids, liquids and gases referring to the number of particles they have

    2) Explain why the planets have different densities 

    Activities:

    1) Practical activity: Ice in the beaker activity ... Recap the names of the processes involved in changing between the three states

    2) Practical activity:  Observing the behaviour of solids, liquids and gases and looking at density cubes to compare their structure



    EXPLORE / TŪHURA

    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING...how the solar system was formed by investigating the behaviour of the materials planets are made of
    • We are EXPLORING... rockets by observing and testing different rocket designs
