Remember to have high expectations
Lesson Title: Today we are learning about
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. Students describe what is happening to be particles: ie transition from a lattice to lacking a pattern (amorphous structure)
  2. So what happens when a solid is heated but does not yet melt: Matter expands when heated Matter becomes less dense when heated.
  3. Particles move faster when heated, and so occupy a larger space. Particles do not change size, but can be of different sizes.
  4. When heated, the forces involved in collisions increases as the particles are moving faster.
  5. Particles are never stationary - other than at absolute zero There is nothing in the gaps between particles.
  6. DESIRABLE: The anomaly of ice-water transition: Less dense objects float. If solids are more dense than liquids, why does ice float on water? Why does a full bottle of water break when left in a freezer? Ice is less dense than water.
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students
Keywords:
  • Particle: Small part of matter. (2)
  • Density: A measure of the compactness of a substance, which is equal to the amount of mass per unit of volume (2)
  • Freeze: A change in state from a liquid to a solid. (2)
  • Force (1)
  • Collision (1)
  • Absolute zero (1)
  • Vibration (1)
  • Kinetic energy: the energy stored within moving objects (1)
  • Heat: The heat an object contains is the amount of its thermal energy, measured in joules or J. (1)
  • Evaporate (1)
  • Expand (1)
  • Matter (1)
  • Melt: A change in state from a solid to a liquid. (1)
  • Condense: A change in state from a l to a liquid. (1)

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. What happens when a solid is heated but does not yet melt?
    Matter expands when heated so becomes less dense.
  2. What happens to particles when they are heated?
    Particles move faster when heated, and so occupy a larger space.
  3. What happens to the force of collision of particles when heated?
    When heated, the forces involved in collisions increases as the particles are moving faster.
  4. At what temperature would particles ever be stationary?
    Particles are never stationary - other than at absolute zero There is nothing in the gaps between particles.
  5. What common chemical is an anomaly and actually less dense as a solid?
    The anomaly of ice-water transition: This is why ice floats on water and a full bottle of water breaks in a freezer. It expands and becomes less dense when freezing to a solid.

Learning Phases/Episodes
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students
Differentiation: AGT, SEND, LLL, Disadvantaged
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Starter Activity Differentiation and Challenge question/task
  • Students to copy and complete the keywords.
  • Teacher reveals missing letters; Students correct mistakes;
  • Discuss the scientific meanings of the words.
  • Students to write down the definitions of the most important / new keywords.
  • Discuss the 'Memory Anchor'.
    • What does it show?
    • How does it relate to the what we are learning about today (title)?
Think about PACE – Develop, consolidate and deepen knowledge, skills and understanding
