Year 8 Chemistry

After the end of term exams Year 8 have been looking parts of the Chemistry syllabus to consolidate their knowledge. We have been discussing physical changes.

First they looked at the physical change when glass is heated. They were able to change the shape of the glass.




Then they looked into separating a mixture of rock salt. They designed their method and documented it on the Science department iPads. Once the separation was complete they presented their work as a keynote presentation.
