  • EXPLORE / TŪHURA

    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING...how matter changes between states so we can interpret and understand their uses in society (eg. Halloween)

    Context: Halloween


    Success Criteria:

    - Investigate and compare different types of particles (Solids, liquids, gases)

    - Identify how particles change between states

    - Describe what density of a substance means 

    - Give examples of where solids, liquids and gases are used in society

    Keywords: solid, liquid, gas, density, evaporation, condensation, melting, deposition, sublimation, freezing


    Activities:

    Practical: investigate + record observations of solids, liquids, gases, prepare a density column 

    Literacy: edPuzzle (Bill Nye States of Matter)

    In-class: Demonstration in changes of state, demonstration of gas having mass
