Science
What's going on in science class?
We are studying physical science now. We will be exploring potential and kinetic energy, and Newton's Laws - lots of fun labs!!
Other Resources:
Standards Based Science Tutorials for Fifth Grade - search by standards to participate in grade level specific content tutorials.
Past Units of Study
Space Review: Space Videos and slide shows can be found here.
Life Science
Human Body:
Human Body Videos can be found at this link
The Human Body - (e-book) review of the body systems covered in our standards
Guts and Bolts (fun game to put systems together and build a cyborg)
Plants and Animals:
We use some of these e-books in class, but most are here for additional information if students are interested in learning more.
Traveling Seeds
Plant Life - plant parts, functions, reproduction, photosynthesis, and uses.
Plant Behaviors - plant adaptations
Food Chains
Life Cycles - plants and animals
Adaptations - plants and animals
Emperors on the Ice - Emperor Penguin adaptations
The Peppered Moth - Story of moth adaptation
Darwin's Finches - Beak adaptations
Dogs by Design - breeding
Vertebrates
Invertebrates
Food Chains and Food Webs
Broken Chains - causes and solutions for broken food chains
Plants vs Animals - how do plants protect themselves in a food chain?
Plant Review This is a link to the videos we view in class during our plants unit. There is also a powerpoint we will be using later in the year to review for SSA. Please use these materials as an option to assist with your studying.
Weather Review Resources This is a link to materials used in class and supplementary video to our weather unit. Please read the title bars for important information you may need.
