| Full lesson | Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle} |

| Step Number | Step Title | Length | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Introduction to Chemical Reactions | 5 minutes | Discuss what a chemical reaction is. Engage students with a question: "What happens when you mix vinegar and baking soda?" |
| 2 | Types of Chemical Reactions | 10 minutes | Introduce and explain different types of chemical reactions (synthesis, decomposition, single displacement, double displacement). Use handouts to summarize each type. |
| 3 | Real-Life Examples | 5 minutes | Present examples of chemical reactions that occur in everyday life (e.g., rusting of iron, photosynthesis). Encourage students to share any relevant experiences. |
| 4 | Demonstration of a Reaction | 5 minutes | Conduct a simple demonstration using vinegar and baking soda. Wear safety goggles and ensure safety measures are followed. Observe the reaction and discuss what is happening at a molecular level. |
| 5 | Review and Questions | 5 minutes | Open the floor for students to ask questions. Summarize key points of the lesson, reinforcing the learning objectives. |
| 6 | Homework Assignment | 5 minutes | Assign students to write about one chemical reaction they encountered in their daily life. Emphasize that they'll submit it in writing without presenting in class. |
Ensure that the lesson adheres to the Australian National Curriculum for Science, focusing on inquiry-based learning and the application of scientific concepts to real-world scenarios.
Students will be assigned to identify and write about one chemical reaction observed in their everyday life, reflecting on how it relates to the concepts discussed in class. Submissions will be collected without presentations.
