Lesson Title: Today we are learning about
How do we get metals from rocks?
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. Carbon and Hydrogen are often added to the reactivity series for comparison.
  2. Metals more reactive than hydrogen will react with water as they will displace the hydrogen forming metal oxides.
  3. The rocks that have significant amounts of metal oxides in are known as ores.
  4. In order to obtain useable metal it needs to be chemically separated from the oxygen.
  5. The blast furnace is used to obtaining some metals from metal oxides using carbon. eg Iron from iron oxide.
  6. Carbon is more reactive than iron so the carbon displaces the iron to form carbon dioxide leaving the iron by itself.
  7. Carbon can only displace metals that are less reactive than itself.
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. Which two non-metal elements are often added to the reactivity series?
    Carbon and Hydrogen are often be added to the reactivity series.
  2. Why don't we find pure metals that are more reactive than hydrogen in the ground?
    The metal displaces the hydrogen, found in ground water, to produce metal oxides.
  3. What do we call rocks that have significant amounts of metal compounds in?
    The rocks that have significant amounts of metal oxides in are known as ores.
  4. What needs to be done to get useable metals?
    Metal in metal oxides needs to be chemical separated from the oxygen.
  5. What type of furnace is used to produce iron?
    The blast furnace is used to produce Iron from iron oxide.
  6. What is added to to the furnace to remove the oxygen from the ore?
    Carbon is added to blast furnace remove the oxygen from the ore.
  7. What determines if carbon can displace the metal?
    Carbon can only displace metals that are less reactive than itself.

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
