• Compare and group materials together, according to whether they are solids, liquids or gases.
• Science, Year 4, States of Matter
• Observe that some materials change state when they are heated or cooled, and measure or research the temperature at which this happens in degrees Celsius (°C).
• Science, Year 5, Properties & Changes of Materials
• Know that some materials will dissolve in liquid to form a solution, and describe how to recover a substance from a solution.
• Science, Year 5, Properties & Changes of Materials
• Compare and group together everyday materials on the basis of their properties, including their hardness, solubility, transparency, conductivity (electrical and thermal), and response to magnets.
• Science, Year 5, Properties & Changes of Materials
• Use knowledge of solids, liquids and gases to decide how mixtures might be separated, including through filtering, sieving and evaporating.
• A comprehensive kit of resources for lessons on changing materials.
• Facilitates activities such as mixing, separating, and heating materials, alongside comparing solids and liquids. Contents may vary.
• This activity kit is an indispensable tool for teaching about the fascinating changes and states of materials. Designed to make complex scientific concepts understandable and engaging, it supports the exploration of how materials behave and change. Practical experiments enable children to see science in action.
• Aligned with the Year 4 and Year 5 science curriculum, the kit includes activities that cover states of matter, material properties, and methods for separating mixtures. It supports curriculum goals such as investigating the nature of solids, liquids, and gases, and learning how to separate mixtures through practical methods.
The kit includes diverse equipment and a book of experiments, all contained within a sturdy box for ease of storage and transport. It offers a hands-on learning experience, enhancing science lessons and encouraging active participation from all children.
