The Tale of Friends and the Magic of Separation
In a small village nestled between rolling hills and lush green fields, there lived three best friends: Ria, Sam, and Arjun. They loved exploring
the world around them and learning new things every day.

One sunny morning, their teacher, Miss Anita, told the class about an upcoming science fair. She announced, "This year's theme is 'Separation of
Substances.' I want each group to come up with an experiment that demonstrates how different substances can be separated."

Ria, Sam, and Arjun were excited but a bit puzzled. They wondered what kind of experiment they could do. As they walked home, they
brainstormed ideas.

"How about we separate salt from water?" suggested Ria.

"Or maybe sand from pebbles?" added Sam.

Arjun thought for a moment and then said, "Why don't we do both? We can show different methods of separation in one experiment!"

The friends gathered at Arjun's house and began their preparations. They collected a mixture of sand and pebbles, a bowl of salty water, a
strainer, a piece of cloth, and a small heat lamp.

They started with the sand and pebbles. "Let's use the strainer first," said Sam. They poured the mixture through the strainer, and the pebbles
were left behind while the sand fell through. The friends were thrilled to see their first successful separation.

Next, they moved on to the salty water. "We need to separate the salt from the water," Ria said. They decided to use the process of evaporation.
They poured the salty water into a shallow dish and placed it under the heat lamp. As the water slowly evaporated, the salt crystals began to form
at the bottom of the dish.

As they watched the salt crystals appear, Arjun said, "This is so cool! We used two different methods to separate substances: filtration for the
sand and pebbles, and evaporation for the salt and water."
The day of the science fair arrived, and the friends were ready. They set up their experiment and explained it to their classmates and teachers.
Miss Anita was very impressed. "You all did a wonderful job," she said with a smile. "Not only did you demonstrate the separation of
substances, but you also showed great teamwork and creativity."

The friends beamed with pride. They realized that by working together and combining their ideas, they could achieve great things. The science
fair taught them an important lesson: just like in science, in life, sometimes we need to separate our problems into smaller parts and find the right
method to solve them.

From that day on, Ria, Sam, and Arjun always remembered the magic of separation and the power of teamwork. They continued to explore,
learn, and support each other, knowing that together, they could overcome any challenge.

1. Introduction Let us now e have a look how separation of substances takes place in ,
Separation of our daily lives.
Substances in  Cleaning rice, grains or pulses (daal) before cooking to remove
Everyday Life! small stones & sticks and unwanted material is done by hand
picking.
 Churning the milk toseparate butter.
Separation of tea leaves using a strainer is a type of filtration
.

2. METHODS OF  Begin by discussing with students the concept of mixtures and GDP
SEPARATION the need for separation.
 Introduce the method of handpicking as a simple way to separate
substances in a mixture.
 Discuss examples of mixtures suitable for handpicking and why
handpicking is an effective method for them.
3. 1. Begin by discussing with students the concept of mixtures and ,
the need for separation.
2. Introduce the method of winnowing as a traditional way of
separating substances based on their weight and size using air.
3. Discuss examples of mixtures suitable for winnowing and why
winnowing is an effective method for them.

4.  Shake or gently tap the sieve to allow smaller particles to pass Let’s work these out
through while larger particles are retained on top. (page 31)-1 & 4
 Collect the separated substances in separate containers.
Will explain sieving by activity

5. Sedimentation,  Begin by discussing with students the concept of mixtures and

Decantation and the need for separation.
Filtration  Introduce the methods of sedimentation, decantation, and
filtration as ways to separate substances in a mixture.
 Discuss examples of mixtures suitable for each method and why
each method is effective.

6. Evaporation  Will explain it by activity

Story: On a hot summer day, Sarah left a shallow bowl of water
outside. The sun's rays heated the water, causing it to slowly disappear.
Sarah watched in amazement as the water evaporated, leaving behind
only a faint memory of its presence. In that simple moment, she learned
the powerful lesson of evaporation, where water vanishes into thin air,
leaving nothing but a whisper of its existence behind.
7. Can water dissolve  - Begin by discussing the concept of solubility with the
any amount of a students.
substance?
 Define solubility as the ability of a substance (solute) to
dissolve in a solvent (such as water) to form a solution.
 Ask students if they think water can dissolve any amount of a
substance.
 Encourage them to share their ideas and reasoning..

(c) solute
(d) solvent
2. Which of the following processes will be useful to get salt from this solution?
(a) Condensation
(b) Evaporation
(c) Filtration

 container?
(a) Sedimentation
(b) Condensation
(c) Evaporation
(d) Filtration
Passage 2
The process of conversion of water into its vapour is called evaporation. The process of evaporation takes place
continuously wherever water is present. Salt is obtained from seawater through the process of evaporation. Sea
water contains many salts mixed in it. One of these salts is the common salt. When sea water is allowed to stand in
shallow pits, water gets heated by sunlight and slowly turns into water vapour, through evaporation. In a few days,
the water evaporates completely leaving behind the solid salts. Common salt is then obtained from this mixture of
salts by further purification.
