to the particle model.
 Understand the difference between
materials, substances and particles.
 Describe solidification/freezing and melting,
using the particle model to describe the
change of state.

 Describe the processes of evaporation and


condensation, using the particle model and
relating the processes to changes in
temperature.

 Understand that the change of state of a


substance is a physical process.

to boiling point, melting point, expands
when it solidifies, and its ability to dissolve a
range of substances) and know that water
acts differently from many other
substances.

another substance to produce one or more
new substances, and this is called a chemical
reaction.
On Earth  Describe the model of the structure of the Earth On Earth
which includes a core, a mantle and a crust.

they are found at breaks in the Earth's crust.

move suddenly this is called an earthquake.

humans skeletons (limited to protecting and supporting
organs, enabling movement and giving shape to the
body).

 Describe the importance of movement in


maintaining human health.
 Identify some of the important bones in the human
body (limited to skull, jaw, rib cage, hip, spine, leg
bones and arm bones).
