This is a great worksheet with an infographic to assist your learners in categorizing matter into mixtures and non-mixtures. Information is given about the metric system of measurement. Your young students match 13 terms with their...

Students explore the states of matter. They discuss the different phrases of matter and categorize everyday substances as solids, liquids, or gases. Students explore the relationship between the phases on an atomic level and the role of...

In this matter worksheet, students compare the different types of matter, including the states of matter. Students review the metric system. This worksheet has 12 matching, 18 fill in the blank, and 4 short answer questions.

Steel is an example of homogeneous mixture, also called an alloy, which is made of iron and carbon. The presentation introduces learners to elements, compounds, and mixtures. They explore their similarities and differences, and then take...

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...

Third graders investigate the three states of matter and the properties of materials as they undergo physical changes. They identify examples of each type of matter, role-play atoms in solids, liquids, and gases, and conduct an...

A somewhat strangely formatted slide show that contains multiple examples of matter types. The classification and state explanations given would be useful as practice of substance identification and the heating curve may prove to be...

Students investigate common household items and classify them into types of matter. In this matter lesson plan, students group given items into categories based on their characteristics. They also complete a concept map about matter and...

In this classification of matter worksheet, learners answer 5 questions about the composition of matter, solutions, colloids and suspensions, and the properties and changes of matter.

In this classification of matter activity, students answer 15 questions about solids, liquids and gases, types of mixtures and compounds vs. elements. They also answer 2 questions about measurement and 1 question about a biome.

After having a class discussion on the three states of matter, young scientists utilize the wonderful substance, Oobleck in order to experience something that changes states of matter. They also create "sparkle jars" which...

Students break into four groups, starting at different stations. Each station should take about 10 minutes depending on prior knowledge of the topic. They then rotate when everyone is finished to the next station and discuss answers of...

The concise slides in this presentation give a good amount of detail for many aspects of matter chemistry.  There are summaries and diagrams for particle movement in solids, liquids, gases and plasma.

The 2006 version of the Regents High School Exam is just as thorough as the rest of them! Assess chemistry learners on an entire year's curriculum when they take this thirteen page test. 

How fun would it be to teach the concept of stoichiometry while allowing your chemistry class to assemble a classic campfire treat? This fun and engaging activity allows pupils to explore the principles of the chemical theory while...

What would a three-dimensional representation of Bloom's revised taxonomy of the cognitive domain look like? Get a glimpse of the complex classification system that is frequently referenced in education to distinguish levels of...

Third graders identify properties of solids, liquids, and gasses. In this states of matter lesson, the teacher demonstrates the properties of each state of matter, then students go on a scavenger hunt for items to represent each state...

Second graders examine the physical characteristics of the different states of matter. In this chemistry lesson, 2nd graders observe how matter changes from one phase to another. They classify substances according to its type of matter.

Students explore the sense of touch. They investigate unknown solids using the sense of touch. Pupils use their senses of touch to match feely gloves. Students explore body parts, by tracing their hands and feet on paper. They create a...

Who can grow the best crystals? Challenge class members to develop strategies for enhancing growth in the crystals. Through a lab investigation, learners study the properties of crystals and test the effectiveness of different...

A review of a full unit on energy and matter, this slide show starts with basic definitions of states of matter and their mass. It then develops the ideas of the forces that that matter can exert. Details about bonding within matter and...

What makes up the air we breathe? Young scientists explore the atoms and molecules in the air. An interactive lesson allows individuals to watch the movement of the particles in the air and change the makeup from a mixture to a...

Students explore the observable properties of matter and utilize them in classification. They use a binary classification system to divide objects, then justify their scheme.

Upper elementary and middle schoolers use their observation skills to group different kinds of candy by similar characteristics. They debate whether or not we should classify objects. Finally, they learn that biologists have developed a...
