Look for different things
you can find at home, such
as sugar, salt, paint, soil,
oil, and so on. Get a few
cups of water and a spoon.
Mix each thing with each
cup of water. Which thing
disappears? Which thing
changes colour? Which
thing floats? Which thing
sinks?

Teaching points:
• Have pupils identify the substance that
dissolves, that does not dissolve, that
floats and that sinks.
• Ask pupils what happened to the
su
sugar substance that dissolved.
