    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI

    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI learning intentions:

    • We are PLANNING to design a water cycle in a bag so we can observe and apply our understanding of the processes in a collaborative group.
    • We are PLANNING to demonstrate our understanding of mixtures and compounds by creating models of the different types of matter.
    • We are PLANNING to perform an experiment on state changes so that we can produce a graph based on our data.

    Week 4

    Paearu Angitu / Success Criteria: I can/have...

    To recall the stages of the water cycle.

    To describe the processes in the water cycle in terms of particles

    To explain how water is cycled in an ecosystem.

    To be able to use a bunsen burner  safely 

     Activities:

    1. Water cycle in a bag 
    2. Bunsen burner experiment 

    Mahi Kāinga / Homework:
    Complete your paragraph on what is happening below- in your books. I will be looking at how you structure your paragraph and how you  link the scientific concepts to the observation. This will help you with your scientific literacy. 


    Week 5: 

    Paearu Angitu / Success Criteria: I can/have...

    Identify mixtures (recap of elements,mixtures and compounds) 

    State changes investigation (bunsen burner and GRAPH skills)

    Separate mixtures by filtering ( After your Goat Island trip) 

    Plan and carry out filtering investigation

    Define the terms solute, solvent and solutions

    Activities:

    1. Mixtures and compounds experiment and notes 
    2. State changes experiment and graph skills ( I will be marking this so make sure to bring your graph paper) 
    3. Journal - 'testing the water's in library - SL reading 

    Mahi Kāinga / Homework:
    EP - Graphing skills -recap
