ways to separate the components of a mixture by their physical properties (sorting,
magnets, or screening) |
Scott Foresman |

|
Observe
and describe the physical properties (odor, color, appearance, relative grain
size, texture, and absorption of water) and different type of soil components
(sand, clay, and humus) of soils |
Use
samples in Science Kit to observe and chart each characteristic of sand, clay

Scott Foresman |
|
Use tools to measure size and weight to the nearest inch, centimeter,
and pound |
M1A2 |
Measuring
