Explains the effect of heat on the properties and behaviour of materials
Solids, liquids and gases behave in different ways and have observable properties that help to classify them
With guidance, pose questions to clarify practical problems or inform a scientific investigation, and predict what the findings of an investigation might be based on previous experiences or general rules

Compare data with predictions and use as evidence in developing explanations
Explain observable properties of solids, liquids and gases by modelling the motion and arrangement of particles
Pose investigable questions to identify patterns and test relationships and make reasoned predictions
Compare methods and findings with those of others, recognise possible sources of error, pose questions for further investigation and select evidence to draw reasoned conclusions

A hands-on science experiment about salt water density.
This science experiment allows students to identify that liquids have different observable properties and can change under different situations.
Students conduct the experiment in small groups, then complete the worksheets provided.
