Help your students investigate mixtures, including solutions of liquids in liquids and solids in liquids, and demonstrate that matter is conserved when mixtures such as soil and water or oil and water are formed with this 15-page EduMagnet Grade 4 science comic—print-ready US Letter landscape PDF.

Grade band: Grade 4 physical science · Mixtures · Solutions · Solids in liquids · Liquids in liquids · Oil and water · Soil and water · Conservation of matter · Mass before and after mixing

This comic is written for Grade 4 and is aligned to Texas TEKS Science 4.6B, 4.6C, 4.5E, and 4.1E. TEKS codes appear on the store listing only — they are not printed on the comic pages.

What’s included

• 15-page color comic PDF (US Letter landscape, print or project)
• Story pages covering what a mixture is, solids dissolving in liquids (salt or drink mix as a solution), liquids in liquids (food coloring versus oil and water, which do not mix evenly), soil and water, conservation of mass in a closed container, planning a fair mix-and-mass test, a comparison chart, a before-and-after conservation lab, why this matters, a big idea, a try-this investigation, a quick review quiz with a flip-to-check answer key, and a vocabulary glossary
• Vocabulary bars and kid-friendly science explanations throughout
• Circled page numbers for easy classroom navigation
• Animal cast only (Mr. Dot, Nova, Bloop, Gear)
• EduMagnet branding on the last page only (not on the cover)

How to use it

• Whole-class read-aloud or projector lesson to launch a mixtures, solutions, or conservation-of-matter unit
• Science centers or literacy + science crossover reading
• Unit introduction or quick review before a mix-and-mass lab or quiz
• Homeschool science reading — no prep: print or project and go
• Comics format supports visual and reluctant readers

Standards
