Science at key stage 3    (Year 7)

Unit 7F: Simple chemical reactions
Section 9: Reviewing work

QCA

Objectives

Children should learn:
  • to identify key points about reactions of acids with metals, acids with carbonates and burning
  • to group points together to make a summary

Activities

Outcomes

Children:
  • Provide pupils with a series of statements, or ask them to make their own, about the areas covered in the unit. Ask them to work together to choose the most helpful statements for a summary and to group those chosen into four or five main sections. Ask pupils to explain why they chose or rejected particular statements and agree an overall summary with them.
  • identify statements which are helpful to a summary
  • combine statements into a summary
  • give reasons for choosing or rejecting particular statements
