Explore Science by Doing It
In Grade 5, students investigate science through exciting, hands-on challenges and experiments. They will:
- 🚀 Launch paper rockets as stomp rockets and explore the forces that make them fly.
- 🔬 Discover the tiny parts that make up the world around us using microscopes.
- 🧪 Figure out “Which White Powder Is Which?” by using evidence and observations to identify mystery substances.
- 🍋 Clean pennies with lemon juice and observe evidence of a chemical reaction.
- 🌱 Investigate what plants need to grow and explore how plants interact with their environment.
- ☀️ Build a scale model of the solar system to explore the incredible size and distances of our cosmic neighborhood.
- 💧 Design and build a water filter while exploring how different materials can be used to clean water.
- ☀️⚡ Experiment with solar panels and discover how sunlight can be transformed into clean electrical energy.
These aren’t just activities to watch or read about. Students build, test, observe, measure, problem-solve, and make discoveries for themselves. The result is a science experience that makes learning memorable—and fun.
