Mixtures and Nanotechnology
What does size have to do with it? Learners analyze different mixtures, both homogeneous and heterogeneous, to discover the properties related to the size of their particles. The activity connects these properties to those of...
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.

I'm All Mixed Up
Middle school scientists compare and contrast heterogeneous and homogeneous mixtures. They differentiate solutions, colloids, and suspensions by examining samples of each. Note that the bulk of the lesson plan directs you how to...
Curated OER
Mixtures
Sixth graders experiment with mixtures. For this chemistry lesson, 6th graders determine which mixtures are considered heterogeneous, a suspension, a solution or a colloid. Students create a data sheet of what they discover.
Curated OER
Mixtures
In this mixtures worksheet, students fill in 7 blanks, determine if 4 statements are true or false, match 7 terms with the appropriate definitions, and solve 2 problems. These include topics such as homogeneous and heterogeneous...

Classification of Matter
Thirty-seven slides thoroughly shed light upon the four classes of matter: elements, compounds, mixtures, and solutions. Also covered are chemical symbols, molecules, and chemical equations. The colors and fonts chosen for the...
Curated OER
Mixtures Lab
Students classify different mixtures. In this mixtures lesson plan, students determine samples to be suspensions, colloids, or solutions and compare homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures.
Curated OER
Chapter 3 Worksheet Matter
In this matter worksheet, students answer ten questions about matter including the phase of matter, mixtures and how they are different from compounds, the physical and chemical properties of matter and the difference between homogeneous...
Curated OER
Mixtures
Students differentiate the two types of mixtures. In this chemistry lesson, students create their own mixture and classify them according to their type. They simulate steel production with the help of a guest speaker.
Curated OER
Solutions, Suspensions, & Colloids Lab
In this solutions, suspension and colloid worksheet, students complete a lab experiment in order to determine if a given mixture is a solution, suspension or colloid. They are given six vials and they record their observations of each...
