With assistance, you can understand and
explain how pure substances and
mixtures differ using the particle model of
matter. More attention needs to be given
to classifying and creating models of
these substances.
With assistance, you can investigate
separation techniques, and analyze the
impact of these methods in society. More
attention needs to be given to recognizing
societal connections.
With assistance, you can investigate,
describe and analyze properties of

You are having trouble understanding and
explaining how pure substances and
mixtures differ using the particle model of
matter. Much more time needs to be given to
classifying and creating models of these
substances.
You are having trouble investigating
separation techniques and analyzing the
impact of these methods in society. Much
more time needs to be given to
understanding how science and societal
issues are related.
