Students are introduced to Democritus and his ideas of divisibility. Building on KS2 knowledge, students use plasticine to build models of solids, liquids and gases in groups. Using the idea that syringes of water and sand cannot be compressed, students rework their models to demonstrate the density of liquids.
Teacher uses a simple demonstration of: floating and sinking, compression and shape to reinforce the idea of the "particle model".
Students complete their findings independently.
