These are bounded opportunities, not learner attainment. Partial and blocked source requirements remain so.

• partial: Compare and group materials as solids, liquids, or gases based on their observable properties and behaviour

  Bounded objective: Classify matter by behaviour and explain two tricky cases. Selected familiar samples and stated conditions only; compressibility not physically tested. No hot steam activity.

• partial: Define solids (fixed shape, hard to compress), liquids (flow, take shape of container), gases (spread out, fill space)

  State behaviours applied at stated conditions; compression not tested.

• partial: Sort at least eight everyday materials into solid, liquid, or gas categories

  Eight cards classified; no actual specimen testing.

• partial: Explain tricky cases like sand (solid particles) or steam (gas, not visible water droplets)

  Solid grains and vapour/mist distinctions taught then recalled.

• partial: Can {{name}} explain the difference between a solid like ice, a liquid like water, and a gas like steam, and sort everyday things into these three groups?

  Try offers taught-content-classification for the bounded objective; it does not establish every part of the source assessment. Selected familiar samples and stated conditions only; compressibility not physically tested. No hot steam activity.
