Science at key stage 3    (Year 7)

Unit 7F: Simple chemical reactions
Section 6: Checking progress

QCA

Objectives

Children should learn:
  • that new materials are made during chemical reactions
  • that the products of a reaction can be deduced from the reactants

Activities

Outcomes

Children:
  • Provide pupils with a series of cards showing words or phrases about the chemical reactions, eg reactant, product, metal, acid, carbonate, oxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, oxygen, and ask them to group them into three sets to describe the three types of chemical reaction covered in the unit. Help them to use the words or phrases to make generalisations about the three types of reaction.
  • identify a product of each type of reaction
  • make generalisations about the products of each type of reaction
