GRADE 5 SCIENCE MCAS REVIEW
LIFE SCIENCE: LIFE CYCLES
All living things go through a life cycle which includes a beginning, growth, reproduction, and death.

LIFE SCIENCE: PLANTS AND PHOTOSYNTHESIS Plants have three main parts: ROOTS, STEMS
and LEAVES Plants use PHOTOSYNTHESIS to make their
food by using energy from the sun

LIFE SCIENCE: CLASSIFICATION
Classify organisms based on similarities

LIFE SCIENCE: ADAPTATION AND MIGRATION
Living organisms ADAPT in order to survive Many organisms will MIGRATE to warmer
areas in order to survive harsh winters

EARTH SCIENCE: SOIL AND ITS PROPERTIES
Soil is an important part of plant and animal life
Soil has properties to classify it: Color Texture Ability to hold water Ability to grow plants
Soil Properties (click)Soil (click)Ingredients of Soil (click)
EARTH SCIENCE: MINERALS
Minerals are nutrients that occur naturally in the ground.
Plants get the minerals they need from the soil.
EARTH SCIENCE: ROCKS
Classify rocks into three categories: Sedimentary Igneous Metamorphic

EARTH SCIENCE: WEATHER
Water Cycle: Evaporation Condensation Precipitation Groundwater/Runoff
Water Cycle (click)
Weather: properties of the atmosphere at a given time and location, including temperature, air movement and precipitation
About Weather (click)
EARTH SCIENCE: CLIMATE
Climate: the average weather for long periods of time and in a specific region
Climate vs. Weather (click)
Climate Regions: Temperate Polar Desert Tropical Tundra
SPACE SCIENCE: EARTH-SUN-MOON SYSTEM
Day-Night Cycle: The earth ROTATES every 24 hours The earth REVOLVES around the sun every 365
days The sun is a starRotation vs. Revolution (click)
Moon Phase: the apparent shape of the lighted part of the moon that can be seen from Earth
Moon Phases (click)
SPACE SCIENCE: EARTH-SUN-MOON SYSTEM
Season: a period of the year determined by the position of Earth as it revolves around the sun
The Seasons (click)
SPACE SCIENCE: STARS AND SOLAR SYSTEM
Solar System: made up of a sun, planets and stars
Planets: large circular mass that revolves around a star Inner vs. OuterInner vs. Outer Planets (click)
Constellations: the night sky shows patterns created by groups of starsConstellations (click)
PHYSICAL SCIENCE: MEASURING MATTER
Matter: material that has mass and takes up some amount of space
Mass: the amount of matter in an object Weight: the force of gravity on an object Defining Matter (click)Mass (click)Weight (click)
States of Matter: Solid, Liquid, GasStates of Matter (click)
PHYSICAL SCIENCE: CHANGES IN MATTER
Form changes: Solid to Liquid: Melting Liquid to Gas: Vaporizing Gas to Liquid: Condensing Liquid to Solid: Freezing
Physical Change in Matter (click)
PHYSICAL SCIENCE: ENERGY
Energy: the ability to do work or cause change; can be changed into different forms and can move between objects
Energy from Sun (click)Changes in Energy (click)
PHYSICAL SCIENCE: FORMS OF ENERGY/WAVES
Energy comes in different forms (light, heat, mechanical, chemical, sound, magnetic)
Forms of Energy (click)Sound Energy (click)
Waves: energy travels in waves We can measure these waves in different
ways: wavelength, amplitude and frequencySound Waves (click)
PHYSICAL SCIENCE: LIGHT ENERGY
LIGHT: waves of electromagnetic energy; electromagnetic energy that people can see
Light (click)
Color: a property of an object that depends upon the wavelengths of light reflected by the object
White light is made of seven colors. All things reflect color and absorb color. We see an object in the color it reflects. Apples reflect red color. So, they appear red.

PHYSICAL SCIENCE: LIGHT ENERGY
Reflection: to strike a surface and bounce back in the opposite direction
Reflection (click)
Refraction: to bend light as it passes through a material
Refraction (click)
PHYSICAL SCIENCE: ELECTRICITY
Electricity: form of energy commonly used for lights, electric motors, and heating.
Static Electricity: electric charges that build up on an object
Electricity (click)Static electricity (click)
PHYSICAL SCIENCE: ELECTRICITY
Circuit: a closed path that electricity can flow through (related words: circle, circular)
Circuit (click)
Conductor: to allow electricity to pass through easily
Insulator: prevent electricity or heat from passing through
