Curated OER
Homogenous and Heterogeneous Mixtures
Fourth graders explain and describe what a mixture is, distinguish between the two types of mixtures (which are heterogeneous vs.homogenous) and are able to create and appropriately label mixtures.
Curated OER
Mixtures, Percentage and Equation Stoichiometry
In this chemistry worksheet, students answer 2 problems on solution stoichiometry. They calculate the mass of products formed given a certain amount of reactant.
Curated OER
Pure Substances and Mixtures
Students compare and contrast the properties of substances and mixtures. In this chemistry lesson, students simulate spontaneous mixing by performing a short class activity. They differentiate heterogeneous and homogeneous mixtures.

Curated OER
Matter
In this matter worksheet, students complete a graphic organizer by describing the properties of matter, the changes of matter, and how matter can form mixtures.
Curated OER
What Properties Do Solutions Have?
In this solutions worksheet, students will write down two properties that solutions have and then will come up with a conclusion about solutions based on their facts.
Curated OER
Matter
In this matter worksheet, students will brainstorm two examples of a pure substance and two examples of a mixture and write these into a graphic organizer.
Curated OER
Salt Solution
In this mixtures worksheet, students answer three essay questions about the amount of salt in a solution. They tell how long a 500 gallon tank will take to empty when given the rate that the water is leaking out. They write about the...
Curated OER
Color Dots 3
Students make simple observations, test mixtures, and make generalized inferences from their observations. They observe bleeding of colored inks with water.
Curated OER
Mixtures
Students are introduced to the concept of mixtures. They identify materials used to make mixtures and describe what happens to the individual materials when they are mixed. In groups, they make bubbles by mixing water and soap together...
Curated OER
Matter And Its Changes
Fifth graders explore the phases of matter, make observations of matter, the physical and chemical properties of matter, solutions and mixtures, formation of molecules and atoms and molecules all through hands on activities.
Curated OER
Teaching about Conductivity
High schoolers explore conductivity and productivity in aquatic systems.
