All Mixed Up – Science Investigation Kit (Refill)

Description

Overview

The All Mixed Up Science Investigation Kit introduces students to the science of mixtures, solutions, and mechanical separation. Using magnets, filters, sieves, and assorted materials, learners explore how different substances interact and how mixtures can be separated based on physical properties. This activity supports essential NGSS-aligned concepts in matter, properties, and classification.

What Students Learn

• The difference between mixtures, solutions, and pure substances

• Hands-on separation techniques: filtration, magnetism, sieving, decanting, and evaporation

• How particle size, density, solubility, and magnetism affect separation

• Scientific observation skills using rulers, hand lenses, and measurement tools

• Foundational concepts in physical science aligned with NGSS

Classroom-Ready Design

All items come packaged for easy distribution, group work, and reuse. With a variety of containers, tools, and materials, this kit provides a complete laboratory experience suitable for upper elementary and middle school learners.
