Changes that Matter!
Throughout this experience, the children are learning about the water cycle. They are also learning about the states of matter and how these are represented throughout the water cycle. The children will also be learning about the features of an explanation text.
Hook:
The children learnt about what happens to materials when they are heated or cooled. We held a science experiment in which children tried to melt different materials the quickest. We discussed the changes that occurred when the materials were heated. We put these back into the freezer to discuss the changes when cooled.
Outcome:
The children will be creating an online explanation text about the the process of the water cycle. The winning one will go onto TES for educators around the world to use, to help inform and teach others.
