5th grade matter and mixtures videos

Quick answer

In 5th grade (ages 10–11), children learn that matter is made of particles too small to see, compare mixtures and solutions, and find that weight stays the same when things change. Start with Crash Course Kids "What's Matter?", then Generation Genius mini-clips and FreeSchool. Play all on repeat, or loop one experiment.

What does this 5th grade matter unit cover?

It covers the particle model of matter, measuring properties, mixtures and solutions, physical and chemical changes, and conservation of matter. By the end a child should explain why sugar seems to vanish in water and why total weight stays the same after mixing or a reaction.

How does RepeatWatch help with science lessons?

Set an A–B loop on one demonstration, such as dissolving or a reaction in a closed bag, and replay it while your child predicts what happens. Slow a fast explanation to 0.75×, and save each topic on keys 1–9.

Frequently asked questions

What grade learns about mixtures and conservation of matter?

In the US, the particle model, mixtures and conservation of matter are usually 5th grade physical science topics (ages 10–11), building on earlier states of matter lessons. Grade levels vary by country and school, so start wherever your child is.

How can we keep a science session short?

Watch one or two short videos, then try a simple kitchen mixture with an adult. Use Stop after N loops so a video ends on its own. Videos play in YouTube's player, so YouTube may show ads.
