| P1.1.2 Kinetic theory | P1 Lesson 1 Kinetic theory and changes of state. | ||
| a | The use of kinetic theory to explain the different states of matter. | Draw simple diagrams to model the difference between solids, liquids and gases. | |
| b | The particles of solids, liquids and gases have different amounts of energy. | Describe the states of matter in terms of the energy of their particles. | |
Full Specification Text[]
a) The use of kinetic theory to explain the different states of matter.
b) The particles of solids, liquids and gases have different amounts of energy.
Starter Activities[]
- Students draw particle diagrams for 3 states of matter from memory. They should label their diagrams to show the differences between the two. Peer marking or share with class to correct misconceptions.
- Watch clip on youtube from BBC science in action showing simple particle model ask students to summarise. Give a table to support.
- Watch clip on youtube showing railway tank being crushed by air pressure. Pair, Share and present possible explanations back to class.
- Have student role play with students as the paricles demonstrating s,l,g
- Three trays with marbles
- They Might be Giants "Solids, Liquids, Gas" Song on You Tube
- Either the second (particles bingo) or the third (identfying solids liquids and gases) activity in this ASE funsized set of activities
Activities to introduce new ideas[]
- Watch clip on youtube from BBC science in action showing simple particle model ask students to summarise. Give a table to support.
- Organise class into groups to behave like particles in solid, liquid or gas and present to class. Students evaluate models being presented.
- Demonstrate kinetic model eg marbles on a tray, small mechanical kinetic theory model
Activities to practice applying new knowledge[]
Practical activities[]
Demonstrations[]
- Demonstrate kinetic model eg marbles on a tray, small mechanical kinetic theory model
Class practicals[]
- Prepare a circus of materials to identify as solid, liquid and gas. For more advanced groups include materials such as gels and pastes.
