An interesting investigation that demonstrates the changes that can happen to a familiar object during a chemical reaction.
This is an experiment that students will find very interesting, though its ties to the curriculum are limited from and science understanding point of view, it is fun demonstration.
Engage in investigations safely and make observations using their senses
Represent observations in provided templates and identify patterns with guidance
Pose questions to explore observed simple patterns and relationships and make predictions based on experiences
recognise that objects can be composed of different materials and describe the observable properties of those materials
Pose questions and make predictions based on experiences
Suggest and follow safe procedures to investigate questions and test predictions
Explore the ways people make and use observations and questions to learn about the natural world
Compare observations with predictions and others’ observations, consider if investigations are fair and identify further questions with guidance
