    EXPLORE / TŪHURA

    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING prominent figures in Science and the domains that they are leaders in
    • We are EXPLORING the scientific knowledge that Marie Curie brought to Science
    • We are EXPLORING the scientific knowledge that Albert Einstein brought to Science
    • We are EXPLORING what everything is made of


    Success Criteria:

    • I can define isotope
    • I can calculate the number of neutrons in an atom using the mass number
    • I can write a chemical word equation for a reaction


    Activities:
