- Material Properties
These worksheets encourage students to think about familiar materials in a more systematic way. Observable Properties. Examine materials directly with our senses. Materials with Common Properties. Grouping materials with common properties. Sorting Properties with Venn Diagrams. Using Venn diagrams to sort materials based on two properties.
Classifying Objects Based on their Observable Properties . Objective . Students will develop an understanding that objects and materials have characteristics or properties. Students will be able to recognize similarities between the properties of certain objects and materials and will be able to group the objects based on these similarities.

Students will develop an understanding that objects and materials have characteristics or properties. Students will be able to recognize similarities between the properties of certain objects and materials and will be able to group the objects based on these similarities.
Objects and materials have different characteristics or properties.The properties of materials include features such as color, size, and shape; whether theyare rough or smooth, shiny or dull, hard or soft, and flexible or stiff.Another property of a material is what it’s made of such as wood, metal, plastic, stone,or glass.Objects and materials can be sorted into groups based on the properties they have in common.NGSS 2-PS1-1: Plan and conduct an investigation to describe and classify different kinds of materials by their observable properties.
Students are introduced to the idea that objects and materials have certain “properties”or “characteristics” that can be used to describe them.After working with a simulation to help students understand the meaning of properties and characteristics, students are given a variety of small common objects to sort based on observable properties.Working in groups, students sort objects and record their groupings on the Activity Sheet.Students are then guided to come up with different criteria for one more set of groupings.Students participate in a class discussion of the different properties used to make the groupings.Download the Student Activity Sheet (PDF)and distribute one per student when specified in the activity. The activity sheet will serve as the Evaluate component of the 5-E lesson plan.
This lesson uses common classroom or household materials that are considered nonhazardous. Follow all classroom safety guidelines. If doing this activity in a lab setting, students should wear properly fitting goggles. Wash hands after doing the activity.

Closing. Students will be given a fictional scenario where they will be given a list of things that they will need to classify according to their like properties. Then, they will write a paragraph explaining the reasoning behind the groups they categorized the objects in. This closing activity will include a printable worksheet.
