Fifth grade science is a survey course that serves to provide a base for more in depth of the main branches of science throughout the rest of middle school. We begin with life science which includes topics such as classifying living things, cell structure and function, and genetics and adaptions. Physical science explores atoms and elements, motion, forces, and energy. Earth science includes the layers of the earth, plate tectonics, and weathering. The buttons below will be evolving throughout the year to include links and resources to help the students study or enrich their understanding so be sure to check back now and then.
