Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. Make a prediction of the change in mass when an Ice cube melts. Develop into an explained hypothesis.
  2. Measure the mass of an ice cube and the let it melt. Measure the mass of the resulting water.
  3. With every measurement there always random error.
  4. Particles can not be created or destroyed.
  5. There is a conservation of material and of mass for physical processes ie: in melting, freezing, evaporation, sublimation, condensation. NB: Students have not studied chemical reactions yet.
  6. Draw a labelled diagram to show the particle arrangement for a material sample as a solid, liquid and gas. Like: http://www.chemistry.wustl.edu/~edudev/LabTutorials/Thermochem/images/SolLiqGas.jpg Check for number of particles being constant. Label melting, freezing, evaporation, sublimation, condensation.
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students
Keywords:
  • States of matter: The form a substance is in. (2)
  • Solid: A substance that hold its shape. (2)
  • Liquid: A substance that takes the shape of the bottom of its container. (2)
  • Conservation: Keep the same (2)
  • Gas: A substance that fills its container. (1)
  • Particle: Something that makes up something bigger. (1)
  • Measurement: Putting a value to some dimension. (1)
  • Melting: When a solid turns into a liquid. (1)
  • Energy: The ability to do work. (1)
  • Attraction: Pulling together. (1)
  • Random Error: A difference between a measurement and the true value, that is different every time a measurement is made. (1)

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. How does the mass of water change as an ice cube melts?
    The mass of water stays the same as an ice cube melts.
  2. What does the term 'conservation of mass' mean?
    Particles can not be created or destroyed.
  3. Why does the mass change during evaporation?
    Although there are no particles destroyed during evaporation, once a gas the particle can not be measured by the balance.
  4. How can we represent the changes of state in diagram form?
    Check for number of particles being constant; Label melting, freezing, evaporation, sublimation, condensation.

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
