Year New National Curriculum Sc : reporting and presenting findings from enquiries, including conclusions, causal relationships and explanations of and degree of trust in results, in oral and written forms such as displays and other Living things and their habitats describe the differences in the life cycles of a mammal, an amphibian, an insect and a bird. describe the life process of reproduction in some plants and animals. Animals, including Humans describe the changes as humans develop to old age Properties and changes of materials compare and group together everyday materials on the basis of their properties, including their hardness, solubility, transparency, conductivity (electrical and thermal), and response to magnets know that some materials will dissolve in liquid to form a solution, and describe how to recover a substance from a solution use knowledge of solids, liquids and gases to decide how mixtures might be separated, including through filtering, sieving and evaporating give reasons, based on evidence from comparative and fair tests, for the particular uses of everyday materials, including metals, wood and plastic demonstrate that dissolving, mixing and changes of state are reversible changes explain that some changes result in the formation of new materials, and that this kind of change is not usually reversible, including changes associated with burning and the action of acid on bicarbonate of soda. Earth and space describe the movement of the Earth, and other planets, relative to the Sun in the solar system describe the movement of the Moon relative to the Earth
describe the Sun, Earth and Moon as approximately spherical bodies use the idea of the Earth s rotation to explain day and night and the apparent movement of the sun across the sky. Forces explain that unsupported objects fall towards the Earth because of the force of gravity acting between the Earth and the falling object identify the effects of air resistance, water resistance and friction, that act between moving surfaces recognise that some mechanisms, including levers, pulleys and gears, allow a smaller force to have a greater effect.

Year Five Long Term Plan 0 0 Autumn Material World reporting and presenting findings from enquiries, including conclusions, causal relationships and explanations of and degree of trust in results, in oral and written forms such as displays and other identifying scientific evidence that has been used to support or refute ideas or arguments. Properties and changes of materials compare and group together everyday materials on the basis of their properties, including their hardness, solubility, transparency, conductivity (electrical and thermal), and response to magnets know that some materials will dissolve in liquid to form a solution, and describe how to recover a substance from a solution use knowledge of solids, liquids and gases to decide how mixtures might be separated, including through filtering, sieving and evaporating give reasons, based on evidence from comparative and fair tests, for the particular uses of everyday materials, including metals, wood and plastic demonstrate that dissolving, mixing and changes of state are reversible changes explain that some changes result in the formation of new materials, and that this kind of change is not usually reversible, including changes associated with burning and the action of acid on bicarbonate of soda. Key Words: Hard: resistant to scratching or pressure. Tough: resists cracking: opposite to brittle. Strong: resistant to tearing. Rigid: hard and fixed; not flexible. Elastic: returns to original shape when force removed. Plastic: retains new shape when force removed. Flexible: easily bends; opposite of rigid and stiff. Electrical conductor: material that allow electricity to flow through it. Thermal conductor: material that allows heat to pass through it. Solution: mixture of solid and liquid (you might not be able to see the solid). Solute: the stuff that dissolves. Solvent: usually (liquid) that does the dissolving. Dissolve: when a solid mixes with liquid to make solution. Evaporate: heat liquid until it turns into gas. Mixture: two or more substances that can be separated. Soluble: when something can dissolve. Insoluble: when something can t dissolve. Filter: use porous material to separate solid and liquid. (W/B 08.09.) (W/B.09.) (W/B.09.) (W/B 9.09.) (W/B 0.0.) (W/B.0.) 7 (W/B 0.0.)
Reversible/physical change: one that can be undone. Irreversible/chemical change: one that cannot be undone. Burning: a special type of chemical change, particularly in fuels.

Summer We are super scientists reporting and presenting findings from enquiries, including conclusions, causal relationships and explanations of and degree of trust in results, in oral and written forms such as displays and other We are super scientists Pupils will be taught to: describe what a scientist is and the different ways in which they work. describe the discoveries of some famous scientists. carry out some forensic tests. use forensic tests to solve a crime. identify and choose good ways of letting others know about science in the news. plan and organise a science fair.
