Grade 5 Science
Week Eleven Lessons
This week we will be reviewing, testing , and goal setting! Make the review fun and the memories will stick! Unit Test reviews are just as important throughout the year. The goal is not to memorize for the test, but to refresh their memory and help make those memories permanent.
TEKS/ Standards:
(A) explore the uses of energy, including mechanical, light, thermal, electrical, and sound energy; Readiness Standard
(B) demonstrate that the flow of electricity in circuits requires a complete path through which an electric current can pass and can produce light, heat, and sound; Readiness Standard
(C) demonstrate that light travels in a straight line until it strikes an object or travels through one medium to another and demonstrate that light can be reflected such as the use of mirrors or other shiny surfaces and refracted such as the appearance of an object when observed through water; and Readiness Standard
(D) design an experiment that tests the effect of force on an object. Supporting Standard
Materials:
Science Wall Complete each day with your choice of word wall words.
Force, Motion, Matter, and Energy Interactive Science Notebook
Science and Literacy Forms of Energy
Science and Literacy Force and Motion
Force, Motion, and Energy Anchor Charts
Force, Motion, and Energy Unit Test
Lesson Ideas:
(Monday – Tuesday) Review using games and activities for the test
Review activities: quick writes for students to show you what they know, quizzes, games, review the labs they have completed, study their science notebooks with a partner.
(Wednesday) Administer the test
(Thursday – Friday) Go over the test and set goals for future tests.
Lesson Notes
I grade tests without marking the correct answer. The students use a pen or colored pencil to review the test when we go over it as a class. They write down the explanations we have for each test question.
