Lesson Starter Make a list of all the substances that you see around you in the room? (eg wood, metal, paper- etc)
To be able to describe what an element is. Learning Intention To be able to describe what an element is.
Atoms Everything is made of atoms Tiny particles we can’t see- pictured as circles Arranged into 3 states of matter Over 100,000,000 different substances in the world
Are there similarities? ADD FIRE! Are there similarities?
Carbon Black Solid ELEMENT Carbon atoms Bread, wood, plastic, fingernails, diamond
Elements A pure substance One type of atom Can’t be broken down into anything simpler Over 100- different types of atom 92 natural- 26 made by scientists
Where do elements come from? https://www.twig-world.com/film/we-are-all-made-of-stars-1402/ ELEMENTS ARE MADE IN THE STARS
Water
Is water an element? Water made of 2 elements Hydrogen and oxygen
Introducing Elements (copy and complete) There are over 1 million substances in the world; all of them made from tiny particles called _________. An _______ is a pure substance made from only one type of _____; they cannot be broken down into anything _______. There are over 100 _________; 92 naturally occurring and 26 made by scientists. _______ are made in the ________.
Task Read page 88 in Starting Science 1 (purple book) and answer questions 1-6 in SENTENCES in your jotter.
Homework Research and write a list of the elements that can be found in your body
Is water an element? Explain your answer Lesson Starter Is water an element? Explain your answer
Bar Graph Name of Element Percentage (%) Oxygen 65 Carbon 18 Hydrogen 10 Nitrogen 3 Calcium 2 Others
Learning Intention To be able to state the meaning of the word ore To be able to explain how to extract metal from ores
Elements can be split into two groups: METALS and NON METALS
Metal Ores Naturally occurring compounds Rocks or Minerals containing metals Found in earth’s crust
Metal Ores (copy) Metal elements (such as iron and aluminium) are found combined with rocks and minerals in the EARTHS CRUST. These naturally occurring COMPOUNDS are called ORES. Compounds are 2 or more elements joined together. The element looks very different from the metal ore it is extracted from.
Extracting metals from Ores Mining Physically remove metal ores from ground Metal ore looks different from the pure metal element Bauxite – aluminium oxide (Al2O3) Haematite – iron oxide (Fe2O3) Malachite – copper carbonate (CuCO3)
Lesson Starter (copy and complete) Metal Ores Metal ores are physically removed from the ground through the process of __________. The pure metal often looks very _________ from the metal ore.
To safely extract metal elements from compounds Learning Intention To safely extract metal elements from compounds
Extracting Metal from Ores Copper Oxide Tin oxide Aluminium oxide Heat with Carbon
Task Write a list of all the equipment and chemicals you used for these experiments Write a list of detailed instructions on how to carry out the experiment Write a detailed explanation of how to ensure safety with the experiment Draw a labelled diagram of how to set the experiment up
Lesson Starter What is an element? Where would we find metal ores? What are metal ores? How do we get the metal element from an ore?
To learn about the different PROPERTIES of elements Learning Intention To learn about the different PROPERTIES of elements
The elements Over 100 elements 84 metals 21 non metals Each element is different- different properties
Task Compare metals and non metals: Is it shiny? Feel them- brittle or hard? Do they conduct electricity? Do they conduct heat?
Properties of elements (copy) Metals are ______ when polished, they are good conductors of _____ and _______. Non- metals are _______ conductors of head and electricity.
States of Matter All metals solid at room temp except MERCURY Non-metals= solid, liquid or gas Solid non-metals= brittle MERCURY and BROMINE are the only LIQUIDS
Elements: States of Matter (copy) All metals (except mercury) are solid at room temperature Non-metals can be solid, liquid or gas; solid non-metals tend to be brittle. The only liquids at room temperature are MERCURY and BROMINE.

Lesson Starter Give 2 properties of a metal Give 2 properties of a non metal Give 1 example of an element which is Solid at room temperature Liquid at room temperature Gas at room temperature
To learn about the periodic table Learning Intention To learn about the periodic table
