TERM / WEEKS: 5Es – EVALUATE – YEAR 2 TOPIC


Term 2, Week 5 Students reflect on their learning from the lesson Chemical science – Materials and Mixtures
sequence. Educator and students revisit the students’
original thoughts and understandings, to assess any
changes in conceptions as a result of the learning
experiences (Primary Connections, 2020).
GENERAL CAPABILITIES
Literacy Numeracy ICT Capability Critical and Creative Ethical Understanding Personal and Social Ethical Understanding

The educator will explain that the students will be applying their • Did you find out anything
As a result of this lesson, students will be able to: knowledge by analysing a particular mixture, and recording what they interesting that you can

picture of a common mixture on it (E.g. milk and cereal, a box of
cake mix, etc.)

collect students’ work to review the lesson objectives and the have a worksheet on which to record their understandings (see
sequence of work. appendix 1):
The educator will assess student learning using a checklist (see • Is the mixture a liquid or a solid mixture?
appendix 2). • What are the materials/ingredients that make up the mixture?
The students’ responses on the KWL chart will also be used as part • What can you use this mixture for?
of the lesson assessment. • Who makes this mixture and how do they make it?

Conclusion (10 Mins):


At the lesson conclusion, the students will have the opportunity to share
their work with the class. The students will return to the mat, where the
educator will review the areas that the students have looked at in the
lesson sequence:
• How we mix
• What we mix
• Who mixes
• What we mix for
• How we classify materials in our environment
The class will discuss their learning, and students will have an
opportunity to share anything interesting they learned, and anything else
they might like to learn. The educator will collect the students’ sheets for
summative assessment of the objectives and unit.

LEARNER DIVERSITY
Enabling:
The assessment conducted in this lesson is summative, and as such,
prompting will be minimal. To support students who may struggle to
write a larger amount, the worksheet will allow space for illustrations.
Students will be able to discuss their learning and ideas with their peers
throughout the lesson.
Students in need of more support could be provided with more simple
mixtures to analyse – E.g. more familiar, fewer components.

Extending:
In order to provide students with extension if necessary, the educator
can pose questions relating to whether the parts of the mixture can be
separated, and can also ask whether all the ingredients/components of
the mixture are manmade, or whether any are natural (E.g. milk in
cereal is natural, whereas the cereal is manmade).
2
Students in need of extension could be provided with more complex
mixtures to analyse – E.g. less familiar, more components.
