The work in this unit also offered * several opportunities for relating ~ understanding of dissolving to everyday contexts. " Water Section 1: Making water clear & Section 2: Making water pure ^ was able to separate a solid from a liquid by sieving and/or filtering the mixture. The sequence of ~ steps required * to separate a mixture by producing and following a flow chart. ^ has related ~ observations to ~ predictions and ^ has been able to say whether ~ prediction was supported or not by ~ evidence. ^ is able to explain that when a solid dissolves it can't be seen but it remains in the solution. ^ was able to explain that when water evaporates from a solution the solids are left behind because they were dissolved in the solution but don't evaporate. ^ has explained that nothing is left behind when distilled water evaporates because there was nothing dissolved in it " Evaporation Section 3: Testing evaporation of a solution ^ is able to explain that the steam from sea water will not be salty because only the water evaporates and the the salt will is left behind. ^ correctly predicted that steam condensed from blue ink will not be blue and ^ was able to give a well thought out reason for ~ prediction which explained only the water evaporated. " Dissolving Section 4: Testing dissolving solids # has identified a range of factors which might affect how fast solids dissolve. ^ is able to use a fair test to investigate a question about dissolving solids and explain why it was fair. ^ is able to name and describe one or two factors that will help a solid dissolve more quickly. " Graphs Section 5: Using graphs ^ is able to present ~ results, perhaps with some help, in a bar chart or line graph and ^ can explain what ~~~ results show. ^ is able to present ~ results in a bar chart or line graph, and ^ can explain what ~ results show. " Sweeteners Section 6: Investigating sweeteners # can explain why several measurements may provide data in which ~ confidence can be placed. ^ is able to decide on a line for ~ graph that fits the data. ^ was able to explain why one line fits the data better than the other possible lines.
