This scientific presentation will help your students to learn all about burning.
Through clear explanations and relatable examples, your students will explore what burning is, the essential elements needed for a fire to burn (oxygen, fuel and heat) and types of fuel, including some that are used by First Nations Australians. They will learn whether burning is a physical or chemical change and if it is reversible or irreversible. The presentation also explains how carbon dioxide fire extinguishers function and how they were invented by building on the work of others.
This presentation provides a comprehensive understanding of burning with everyday examples that make learning both fun and relevant. It is part of our
Chemical Sciences Year 6 UNIT PLAN and is ideal to use alongside the
Burning Investigation Worksheets.
