STATES OF MATTER - MOLECULES AND MATTER

STATES OF MATTER - MOLECULES AND MATTER

This lesson is designed for the NEW AQA Trilogy Physics GCSE, particularly the 'Molecules & Matter ’ SoW.

 

The first activity of this lesson requires pupils to sort cards of information regarding particle arrangement, movement of particles and closeness of particles, into either solids/liquids/gases. Students will then need to copy and complete the table of information, this task can be self-assessed using the mark scheme within the PowerPoint presentation.

 

Next, students are introduced to the kinetic theory of matter which applied to solids, liquids and gases. Pupils are given some information on the way particles in these three states of matter behave in relation to each other, particularly the speed/direction particles move in.

 

Students will now need to watch a video on states of matter and will need to answer a set of questions, once this task is complete students can use the mark scheme provided to either self or peer assess their work. Using information from the video students will complete a diagram to show the transitions between different states of matter, students will need to match the correct process to the correct label on the diagram. Students can then mark their work using the answers provided.

 

Lastly, students are introduced (or reminded of) the law of the conservation of mass and how this applies to changes of states of matter, before then completing a ‘Quick Check’ task which requires students to answer a set of questions based upon what they have learned this lesson. Again, the mark scheme for this task is included in the PowerPoint so students can assess and correct their own work.

 

The plenary activity is for pupils to write a twitter message to summarise what they have learned this lesson. including #keywords from the lesson!
