Mixing Matters Worksheet

Mere, Ruben and Isla are preparing supplies for a space mission. A mixture is made when two or more materials are put together. Look closely: in many mixtures, you can still see the different parts.

Investigate the materials

Use what you know about mixtures to help the crew.

1.The bowl has cereal rings, dried apple pieces and raisins. Is it a mixture?
  • Yes, because it has different materials together.
  • No, because everything is in one bowl.
2.Name two different parts you can see in the snack-bowl mixture.
3.Ruben puts sand and small shells together in a clear tub. This makes a mixture.
