Pupils who are secure will be able to:

• Define the term ‘mixture’ and name some common examples. 
• Define the term ‘sieving’ and explain how sieving separates mixtures.
• Define the term ‘filtering’ and explain how filtering separates mixtures. 
• Define the terms ‘solution’ and ‘dissolve’ and name some common examples of solutions. 
• Recall some factors that affect the time taken to dissolve.
• Describe the effect of temperature on the time taken to dissolve. 
• Define the term ‘evaporating’ and explain how evaporating separates solutions.
• Identify when sieving, filtering and evaporating should be used.

When working scientifically pupils who are secure will be able to:

• Research a mixture to find out what substances it is made from.
• Draw and annotate a diagram to explain how sieving separates a solid-solid mixture.
• Identify and justify which type of enquiry to use to answer my testable question.
• Identify solutions by observing and describing their appearance. 
• Suggest which variables to change, measure and control when investigating how temperature affects the time taken to dissolve.
• Choose which measurements to take and how long to take them for.
