Year 5 have started their science unit on reversible and irreversible changes. We explored a variety of changes that can occur to an object when exposed to different reactions such as: evaporation, condensing, dissolving heating and melting. The children explained many different reactions and knew materials that can be formed from irreversible changes; detailing the advantages and disadvantages of both changes. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_0965.jpeg)
