Dissolving: 3 experiments

This lesson involves an exciting experiment to understand the terms:
*dissolve
*solute
*solution
*solvent
*soluble

Children will work in mixed ability groups and conduct 3 different experiments to see which factors have an influence on dissolving. It worked fantastically in the use and understanding of the scientific terms listed above. Children will then feedback to the class about what they discovered from their investigation and as a class we will conclude as to which factors effect dissolving most.

This lesson comes well resourced with:
*a step-by-step guide, for each group, in how to conduct their experiment along with the equipment needed.
*Key Vocabulary for reference or display purposes.
*Flash cards explaining the terms for low ability or visual learners.
*A detailed lesson plan
*An interactive notebook file
*Post/prior assessment tool

Overall, a very enjoyable lesson which allows the children to learn and understand the scientific terms in a practical way.
