The basic standards of competences in Natural Sciences were stablished after a very structured and hard work from different persons and educational institutions which were published by the Ministry of National Education of the Republic of Colombia for all elementary and secondary educational levels. This document if the referential guide, so that all the school institutions, urban or rural, private or public of the country, offer the same quality of education to Colombian students. Bearing in mind the above information and moreover that the textbook is one of the pedagogical and methodological tools that teachers usually use to structure the curricular design of the area to be taught, I decided to do an analysis of the types of questions and activities proposed in fifteen textbooks of Natural Science, the most used by teachers in third, fourth, and fifth grades in elementary school, and sixth grade in secondary school. The activities selected for the analysis were related to the curricular unit: matter, properties, mixtures, and separation of mixtures of the Chemistry area, in order to know the planning, the design, and the structure of the content included in each analyzed textbook, and so identity if there is an articulation among the basic standards of competences in Natural Science with the selected content, and the proper knowledge of science developed in the textbooks. From this stand point, I search to identify the basic and specific competences of Natural Sciences that are promoted in students. It is expected to find out an articulation among those documents, and therefore a contextualized Chemistry curriculum with the regulations that govern education in Colombia.
