1. In your village, visit a place that has a fence of wire. Take few small marbles or pebbles along with you. Throw them all in one go into the fence. You will observe that few of the pebbles will pass through the fence to the other side, and few will get hit and bounce back. This is how the electrons also move.

Lesson plan version 1.1 activites

1. Ask the children to prepare a chart containing a list of Pure substances around them which they commonly use. Draw pictures wherever possible.

2. Take a little amount of mercuric oxide in a test tube. Heat it first gently, and then strongly in a bunsen flame. Observe the test tube. You will notice a silver mirror gradually appearing on upper part of the test tube and later, globules of mercury will be seen. Insert a glowing splinter into the test tube. The flame of splinter brightens showing the presence of oxygen. What does this tell you?

Explain using this video- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTB4COQswLY

3. Take some water in a glass. This is liquid state. Now put it in the freezer/cold storage. It becomes ice which is in solid state. Now pour some water in a pan and boil. The vapor is the gas state.

4. Make the periodic table on a chart paper and hang/paste in the classroom. (group activity)

5. Analyze the number of elements if any present in your name.

6. Take a little sulphur in a spoon. Heat it. It burns while a blue flame disappears. You can smell a pungent smell. What is it due to?

7. Check whether sugar is a compound or not.

• Take some sugar in a test tube.

• Heat the test tube on a flame.

• The sugar will melt and turn brown.

• On further heating it starts charring and turning black.

• Look near the rim of the test tube. You will find small droplets of water.

• Since the water droplets have formed upon heating these cannot possibly be result of condensation from air. This shows that water has formed by decomposition of sugar.

• Black residue is carbon.

• So, sugar decomposed into carbon and water.

• We know that water is made up of elements of hydrogen and oxygen. This shows that sugar is a compound.
