Teacher notes

- Anything below 14 marks means the application stage needs re-teaching, not more practice.
- Project the whole-class version and poll answers before revealing the explanation.
- Pair the results with the Introduction to Matter worksheet for targeted written practice.
Common student mistakes
- Confusing introduction to matter with a neighbouring idea in matter.
- Reaching for a rule that belongs elsewhere in matter.
