KS2 worksheet asking students to read a science experiment text and write a report based on the instructions.

To solve this problem, we need to read the story carefully and find the specific steps for doing the experiment. The text tells a story about what happened in class, but we need to pick out just the instructions.

Step 1: Identify the Equipment Needed
Read through the text to find the list of items used.
* The text says: "We needed large glasses, water, food colouring, and spoons."
* It also mentions using "different colours" of food colouring.

Step 2: Determine What Was Done (The Steps)
Look for the actions taken in order.
* First action: "First we filled each glass with water..."
* Second action: "...then added several drops of different food colourings into each glass."
* Third action: "Next we stirred the liquid in the glass from different angles..."
* Fourth action: "...and watched as the particles moved around."
* Fifth action: "All the liquids produced a cool wave-like motion." (This is an observation, but part of the process).
* Final action: "At the end we wrote down our observations..."

Step 3: Determine What Was Used
This is similar to equipment, but focuses on the materials consumed or manipulated.
* We used water.
* We used food colouring (several drops/different colors).

Step 4: Determine What Was Learned
Look for the conclusion or the scientific fact mentioned at the beginning or end.
* The first paragraph states the main lesson: "Did you know that all the tiny particles in the atmosphere collect and absorb sunlight? ... When we stir the water... we can see how light waves behave when they pass through a glass from a variety of different angles."
* So, the lesson is about how light behaves when it passes through water and particles (like in the atmosphere).

Now, let's write these into the sections required by the worksheet.

Equipment/materials needed:
Large glasses, water, food colouring (different colors), spoons, paper (for writing observations).

What I did:
1. Filled large glasses with water.
2. Added several drops of different food colouring into each glass.
3. Stirred the liquid in the glass from different angles.
4. Watched the particles move and create a wave-like motion.
5. Wrote down observations.

What I used:
Water and food colouring.

What I learned from the experiment:
I learned that tiny particles in the atmosphere collect and absorb sunlight. By stirring coloured water, I could see how light waves behave when they pass through a glass from different angles, similar to how light interacts with particles in the air.

Final Answer:
Equipment/materials needed: Large glasses, water, food colouring (various colors), spoons, paper.

What I did:
1. Filled large glasses with water.
2. Added several drops of different food colouring to each glass.
3. Stirred the liquid from different angles.
4. Observed the wave-like motion of the particles.
5. Wrote down my observations.

What I used: Water and food colouring.

What I learned from the experiment: I learned that particles in the atmosphere absorb sunlight. The experiment showed how light waves behave when passing through a liquid with particles in it from different angles.
