Develop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen, and that this explains properties of solids, liquids, and gases
Typical age: 10–11 years
“Can your child explain that everything is made of tiny particles we can't see, and that how tightly packed they are determines whether something is a solid, liquid, or gas?”

Needs first
- Drawing Particle DiagramsREQUIRED
Developing a model of matter as particles too small to see is built on the particle diagram representation
- Heating & Cooling ChangesREQUIRED
Must observe state changes before explaining them with particle model
- Solids, Liquids & GasesREQUIRED
Must understand observable states of matter before modelling them with particles
