1 Tiered Activity: Elements, Compounds, and Mixtures Goals/Standards: S8P1b. Describe the difference between pure substances (elements and compounds) and mixtures Pre-assessment/Formative Assessment: At the end of the Elements, Compounds, and Mixtures lesson, students will complete a summarizing strategy. Based on the summarizing strategy, the teacher will place the students into two groups: students who primarily understood the concepts and students who did not understand the concepts. Introduction: Based on the summarizing strategy, students will either receive Level 1 or Level 2 Category Cards. Students can work in small groups or individually to sort the cards into the following categories: Element, Compound, Mixture, or in some cases a combination of these. Level 1: Images are less complex and examples are common substances that will be easier for students to categorize and explain Level 2: Images are more complex and examples require higher order thinking to categorize and explain Closure/Assessment: The teacher will observe students or groups will completing the activity. The teacher should spend more time with Level 1 students initially to make sure they understand the concepts. Students will record their responses while completing the activity on the handout provided by the teacher. Additionally, the teacher will check the handouts to determine student understanding Adapted from Jessica Hockett, 2009

8 Elements, Compounds, and Mixtures Name Date Period Directions: Use the numbered cards provided by the teacher to identify elements, compounds, and mixtures. Use the spaces below to record your answers and your explanations for each. If the numbered card is a Compound, include the number of atoms and elements in each compound. Identify below all of the numbered cards that are Elements: Why are these examples of elements? Identify below all of the numbered cards that are Compounds: Why are these examples of compounds? Write out the Compounds below and identify the number of elements and the number of atoms in each compound. Identify below all of the numbered cards that are Mixtures: Why are these examples of mixtures: Identify two additional examples of an element. Identify an additional compound. (use another resource if needed) Identify an additional example of a mixture.
