Burning - Objectives Labels is part of the lesson Burning    Students will learn about burning as part of their learning about properties and changes of materials, as specified by the national curriculum in England: science programmes of study.

<p>Lesson 5.6, titled "Irreversible Changes: Burning," sets out to educate students on the concept that certain changes lead to the creation of new materials and are typically irreversible. This includes the process of burning and the reaction between acid and bicarbonate of soda. The lesson's objectives are clear: students will learn to explain these irreversible changes and understand that new substances are formed as a result. To assess their comprehension, students will be asked to answer specific questions, such as naming the three essential elements needed to produce fire, identifying the new substances that are created when something burns, defining what constitutes an irreversible change, and listing some indicators of chemical reactions.</p>

<p>The lesson aims to deepen students' understanding of chemical processes and the permanence of certain reactions. By the end of the session, students should be able to articulate the irreversible nature of burning, recognize the signs of a chemical reaction, and apply their knowledge to similar scenarios. The lesson is structured to encourage active learning, where students can demonstrate their grasp of the topic through a series of targeted questions that cover the key learning points. This approach ensures that students not only receive information but also engage with the material to reinforce their learning and develop a solid foundation in the principles of irreversible chemical changes.</p>

<p>This lesson teaches pupils about the fire triangle and the importance of understanding the three elements that are needed to produce fire: heat, fuel, and oxygen. They will be introduced to the concept of combustion and how it leads to the formation of new materials. The pupils will then participate in a series of hands-on activities to reinforce their understanding of the fire triangle, including a report on the history of combustion and graphs of their experimental results. </p> <h2>Previous Learning</h2> <p>Prior to this lesson, pupils should have an understanding of the states of matter and have identified and named various everyday materials. In Year 4, they learned about the states of matter and observed how some materials change state when heated or cooled.</p> <h2>Keywords</h2> <ul> <li>Fire</li> <li>Burning</li> <li>Combustion</li> <li>Oxygen</li> <li>Carbon dioxide</li> <li>Fuel</li> <li>Mass</li> </ul> <h2>Influential Scientists</h2> <ul> <li>Antoine Lavoisier</li> <li>Marianne Lavoisier</li> <li>Henry Cavendish</li> <li>Joseph Priestley</li> <li>Carl Scheele</li> </ul> <h2>Activities</h2> <h3>The Fire Triangle</h3> <p>Pupils will work in groups of two to produce a report on the three elements of the fire triangle. They will also draw the triangle as part of their report.</p> <h3>Fire Needs Oxygen (WS)</h3> <p>Pupils will work in groups of four to investigate the relationship between the size of a glass and the time a tealight can remain lit. They will record the results of their experiment in a table and observe the impact of the availability of oxygen on the combustion process.</p> <h3>What Happens to the Mass of the Candle When Lit? (WS)</h3> <p>Pupils will work in groups of four to measure the mass of a tealight before and after it has been lit. They will observe the impact of combustion on the mass of the candle and record their results in a table. </p> <h2>Science Explained</h2> <p>The lesson explains the process of combustion, including the role of fuel, heat, and oxygen. The pupils will learn that the wax in a candle is the fuel, and the matches provide the heat. The available oxygen in the air is used up during combustion, leading to the formation of carbon dioxide, which then extinguishes the flame. The lesson highlights that the process of combustion is irreversible and that the carbon dioxide produced does not return to its original form as wax.</p> <h2>Important Lesson Guidance</h2> <p>Safety is the top priority in this lesson. It is important that the teacher adheres to the guidance provided and that enough materials are available for the activities, including tealight candles and narrow-gauge iron wool. </p>
