Chemistry

Material World Curriculum Aims

Students will:
• Explore and develop ideas about the properties of materials, how these relate to
their uses, and issues arising from their use.
• Investigate and classify chemical reactions and identify ways that these are used to
address issues and needs in society.
• Use models to represent the particle nature of matter and explain the behaviour of
materials. They will communicate their ideas using chemical symbol convention
