1. Mixture and their Characteristics
1.1 Homogenous and Heterogeneous mixtures
CONTENT STANDARDS:
The learners demonstrate understanding of different types of
mixtures and their characteristics.
PERFORMANCE STANDARDS:
The learners should be able to prepare beneficial and useful
mixtures such as drinks, food, and herbal medicines.
LEARNING COMPETENCY:
The learners should be able to describe the appearance and uses
uniform and non-uniform mixtures.

At the end of a 50-minute lesson, the Grade 6 pupils are expected to:
a. identify the kinds of mixtures;(S6MT-Ia-c-1)
b. use different kinds of mixtures in everyday living; and
c. observeprecautionary/safety measures in using mixtures of solid and
liquid materials.

III. INSTRUCTIONAL PROCEDURE

A. Engagement

1. Prayer
2. Review
Say: Give examples of mixtures? How are mixtures formed?
3. Motivation
3.1 Let the pupils sing and dance the Fruit Salad Song.
Ques: What dessert can you make when you mix all the fruits together?
When we mix the fruits such as watermelon, papaya and banana, they become
Fruit Salad and that is a mixture.

3.2 Do you know how to prepare lemonade?

You can make lemonade by adding sugar and freshly squeezed calamansi
juice to water. The ratio of the amount of sugar and calamansi juice may vary
depending on your taste.Lemonade is a mixture.

Do you know that there are kinds ofmixtures? Today you will be assigned to
perform an activity in identifying mixtures.

B. Exploration
1. Introduce Lesson 2 Activity: Mixtures
2. Check the materials brought by the students.
3. Give the necessary instructions in doing the activity (allotted time for
the activity, the data to be accomplished, group presenter/member’s
role/ responsibility, precautionary measures, etc.)
4. Let the students do any of the following activities:

Activity 1: Mixtures
Materials: clear plastic jar with cover, gravel, sand, loam soil, water,
newspapers
Procedure:

1) Cover your work area with newspaper.

2) Place gravel up to 1 cm high in a clear plastic jar. Flatten the gravel layer.
3) Repeat step 2 using sand and then loam soil to create three distinct layers
in the jar.
4) Fill the jar with water.
5) Cover the jar tightly and shake it. Turn it upside down, then right side up.
Leave it undisturbed for 10 minutes or until the sediments settle.
6) Which particles settled first? Which settle next? Last?
7) Describe the resulting material.
8) What do you call the resulting material?
9) How many substances can you recognize from the materials in the bottle?
10)What kind of mixture is this?

Activity card 2 : “You Mix Me, You Mix Me Not”

Materials: Sugar, carrots (cut into small cubes), medium-sized bowl, 500 mL
mayonnaise, cold water, ka ong (green and red), powdered orange juice
(one sachet), pitcher, 250 g macaroni noodles (cooked), ladle, one can
condensed milk, spoon, cheese, glass

Procedure:

1) Wash your hands thoroughly.

2) Fill a pitcher with one liter of cold water.
3) Open the sachet of orange juice. Pour its contents on a glass and
dissolve it by adding a glass of water. Stir evenly.
4) When the juice powder is already dissolved, put the mixture in a
pitcher of cold water. Add sugar for the desired taste. Stir to
dissolve the sugar and set aside.
5) Wash your hands thoroughly. Put the macaroni noodles in a
medium-sized bowl. Add the carrots, kaong, condensed milk,
cheese, and mayonnaise. Set aside.

Questions:

1) What are mixed to make the orange juice?

2) What happened to the juice and sugar?
______________________________________________________
3) How many phases can you see inside the pitcher of juice?
______________________________________________________
4) What kind of mixture is the orange juice?
______________________________________________________
 5) How did you prepare the salad? Can you still identify the ingredients?
______________________________________________________
6) What kind of mixture is the salad? Why do you say so?
______________________________________________________
7) Fill out the date table

Mixture Ingredients Number of Phases Kind of Mixture

Juice

Macaroni Salad

What is the difference

between the juice and
the macaroni salad?

C. Explanation

1. Discuss theiroutputs. Ask for volunteers to present their work in class.

2. Give feedback.
3. Discuss the answer of the question in the activities.

D. Elaboration
Teaching Part:
Mixtures can be homogeneous. A mixture is homogeneous, or what is
commonly called as a solution, when the materials in the mixture cannot be
recognized from one another. You were able to identify the different
components that were mixed because they were not evenly distributed in the
mixture. The components retained their own characteristics. The mixture
produced in this activity is a coarse or heterogeneousmixture.

Formulation of Generalization through questions:

 What are the kinds of mixture?

 Give examples of homogeneous mixture found in our locality.
(buko juice, calamansi juice, calamay etc.)
 Give examples of heterogeneous mixture found in our locality.
(nilupak, biko, masi etc.)

Value Focus: (Observe precautionary/safety measures in using mixtures of solid

and liquid materials.)
 Have you experienced having accidents during mixing the substances?
What should you do to avoid it?

IV. Evaluation

PART 1. Direction: Identify the different substances into homogeneous or

heterogeneous mixture.

HOLLOW BLOCK BINIGNIT

PART II. Direction: Identify the kind of mixtures as to homogeneous or

heterogeneous mixture:

1) Milk
2) Buko juice
3) Halo-halo
4) Lemonade
5) Fruit salad

V. ASSIGNMENT
Write 5 examples of mixtures and identify its kind.
