Science
Year 6 – Light Recognise that light appears
to travel in straight lines.
Use the idea that light
travels in straight lines to
explain that objects are seen
because they give out or
reflect light into the eye.
Explain that we see things
because light travels from
light sources to our eyes or
from light sources to objects
and then to our eyes.
Use the ideas that light
travels in straight lines to
explain why shadows have the
same shape as the objects
that cast them.

Year 5 – Properties
and Changes of
Materials Compare and group
together everyday
materials on the
basis of their
properties, including
their hardness,
solubility,
transparency,
conductivity
(electrical and
thermal), and
response to magnets. Know that some
materials will
dissolve in liquid to
form a solution, and
describe how to
recover a substance
from a solution. Use knowledge of
solids, liquids and
gases to decide how
mixtures might be
separated, including
through filtering,
sieving and
evaporating. Give reasons, based
on evidence from
comparative and fair
tests, for particular
uses of everyday

Year 6 – Evolution and
Inheritance Recognise that living
things have changed
over time and that
fossils provide
information about
living things that
inhabited the Earth
millions of years ago. Recognise that living
things produce
offspring of the same
kind, but normally
offspring vary and are
not identical to their
parents. Identify how animals
and plants are adapted
to suit their
environment in
different ways and
that adaptation may
lead to evolution. Working scientifically Identifying scientific
evidence that has been
used to support or
refute ideas or
arguments.
Year 5 – Forces Explain that
unsupported objects
fall towards the
Earth because of the
force of gravity
acting between Earth
and the falling
object. Identify the effects
of air resistance,
water resistance and
friction, that act
between moving
surfaces. Recognise that some
mechanisms, including
levers, pulleys and
gears, allow a smaller
force to have a
greater effect. Working scientifically Planning different
