In Year 9 this week we have been learning more about theories of matter and the periodic table. Learners began by reviewing their knowledge on states of matter, elements, compounds and mixtures, then finding out about the parts of an atom. They worked on their skill of drawing scientific diagrams and were then able to understand why some atoms are reactive (or not) based on their structure. We then explored how theories have changed our understanding of the world around us and the importance of evidence.
