This document summarizes a student's weekly learning activities related to separating mixtures through various processes. It discusses sieving, decantation, filtration, evaporation, and using magnets to separate mixtures. For each process, the document provides examples of how it is used in the community and its benefits. It also includes classroom activities where students discuss and demonstrate these separation techniques.

using magnets:
• They are used to construct the electrical
motors and the generators which convert
the electrical energy into mechanical
energy and vice versa.

Maglev trains, the super conducting
magnets are used on the tracks on which
the train floats. These types of the trains
are working on the repulsion force of the
magnets.
• They are also used to sort out the
magnetic and non magnetic substances
from the scrap.

screens, telephones and in tape
recorders.
• They are used by the candy or cold drink
vendors to separate the metallic cap from
the lots.

• They are used in the refrigerators to keep
the door close.

the magnetic compass which is used to
find the geographical directions.

that magnet can be
use in separating
mixtures in our daily
living

from using

separating
mixtures? How?

72. Draw happy face that show the benefits
from separating mixtures using magnet
and sad face if it is not.

useful in mining as it is attracted to a
magnet.

work. To remove metal content from
wheat to protect other machines
safety
5. Remove metal powder mixed in flour
