Science SOL Review

5th grade science sol review

Scientific and Engineering Practices 4.1,5.1

The student will demonstrate an understanding of scientific and engineering practices by: a. asking questions and defining problems. b. planning and carrying out investigations. c. interpreting, analyzing, and evaluating data. d. constructing and critiquing conclusions and explanations. e. developing and using models. f. obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information

In the scientific method there are 6 basic steps 1st make observation and ask questions to find a problem then research and form an hypothesis (an educated guess) then conduct the experiment, observe and make inferences, then you analyze data and finally make an conclusion a share data with family and friends

energy, force & motion 5.2 a-d & 5.3 a-e

The student will investigate and understand that energy can take many forms. Key ideas include: a. energy is the ability to do work or to cause change, b. there are many different forms of energy, c. energy can be transformed, d. energy is conserved.The student will investigate and understand that there is a relationship between force and energy of moving objects. Key ideas include: a. moving objects have kinetic energy, b. motion is described by an object’s direction and speed, c. changes in motion are related to net force and mass, d. when objects collide, the contact forces transfer energy and can change objects’ motion, e. friction is a force that opposes motion.

force is any push of pull some another example of force is gravity, friction, spring, magnetic, tension, and applied force. motion contains potential and kinetic energy so motion and energy ties in.

force & motion

there are two forms of energy kinetic and potential energy and energy can also transform into thermal, radiant, mechanical, electrical, sound. chemical and nuclear will not be needed until 6th grade.

• The size of the box

• the mass of the box

• the color of the box

• the position of the box

• the shape of the box

Multiple Choice

To describe this car’s motion, a student should use its —

• mass and volume

• direction and speed

• speed and color

• volume and direction

Multiple Choice

An object is traveling north at a speed of 12 kilometers per hour. Which characteristic of the object is being described?

• matter

• motion

• volume

• temperature

kinetic & potential energy 5.2 a

potential energy is the stored energy of an object some examples are like a book sitting on a book shelf, a roller coaster sitting on the top of the track waiting to fall, or like an pitcher about to strike the ball on an baseball game

potential

kinetic energy is the energy of motion some examples are ,like a book falling off of a book shelf, a roller coaster falling from the tallest part, or like an pitcher striking the ball on an baseball game

kinetic

Multiple Choice

5th grade science sol review 5.4

electricity

With electricity you will understand the concept of a current traveling through a circuit or an open, closed, series, and parallel circuit.

An open circuit is a circuit that is not complete and does not allow the current to finish its cycle

open

An closed circuit is a complete circuit that fully allows a electric current to complete its cyle

closed

An series circuit is a complete circuit that allows electricity but can hold more then one light bulb but if one of these bulb breaks then all the light bulb will go blank

series

A parallel circuit allows more than one pathway of electricity so if one bulb goes out the others stay lit

​​parallel
