Crazy Chemicals

Everyone is a scientist! Explore the world of chemistry today.

Students dive into the chemical properties of matter and materials. Younger students (years F-4) investigate observable properties and everyday uses of different materials, while older students (years 5-6) explore states of matter and chemical changes. Students move through a variety of activities, including messy ones (yikes!)  that promote promote critical thinking and scientific inquiry.

Looking for a physical science focus?
Our specially designed Toy Science program is a popular choice for F-2 students. Check it out here.
Our Forces and Energy program is perfectly suited to years 4-6. Find out more here.

Activities

Half of the session is dedicated to exploring our dry tables, which feature scientific toys and objects. The other half of the session takes place at our wet tables, where students blast rockets and make slime!

Our discussion points are tailored to your students year level and curriculum focus.

F-4 students:

  • Discuss prior knowledge of the properties of different materials such as metal, wood, and plastic
  • Make predictions while exploring different materials, and observing properties such as magnetism and the role of heat in chemical change
  • Explore various chemical reactions and observe key changes using sensory play and experimentation.

5-6 students:

  • Reflect on prior knowledge of the properties and behaviour of solids, liquids, and gases
  • Apply the scientific method and conduct fair tests while exploring different materials, observing properties such as the role of heat in chemical change, and the mass of different states of matter
  • Conduct various chemical reactions and apply new terminology to describe chemical change, reversible vs irreversible reactions, and change in properties.

Scope of Learning

Together we’ll select the learning outcomes that best suit class abilities and curriculum requirements. Examples include;

  • Comparing the use of materials for particular uses in our everyday lives
  • Identify and describe the various properties and behaviour of solids, liquids and gases
  • Analyse and describe the differences between physical and chemical change
  • Understand and apply basic laboratory procedures & practices of measurement, accuracy & equipment use
  • Application of scientific methodology and terminology
  • Communicate and discuss various observations and make conclusions.

Crazy Chemicals Reviews

Ararat North PS

The program was excellent and aligned well with our current foci in class. The instructors were energetic, engaging and clear, and did an excellent job of keeping students on track. Fantastic program!

Manor Lakes P-12 College

Children were super engaged in all of the activities today. They loved the rockets in particular. We used your company last year and it was just as amazing! It has really peaked my students interest in chemical science!

Penleigh and Essendon Grammar

The students were engaged and, above all, really enjoyed broadening their knowledge of chemicals and different materials.
