Check out this awesome exploratory task card where students will learn about polarity and closed circuits. Students will be required to identify the locations of a battery and bulb that are contact parts and then will explore how to create a circuit that lights the bulb. A guided worksheet with directions will allow students to complete this activity independently, in small groups, at a center or as a whole class. You will need a D battery, wiring and a bulb for this activity.

Check out this awesome task card that allows students to work hands on through exploration to identify materials that are conductors and differentiate them with materials that are non-conductors. You will need the basic materials for a circuit including a battery, wiring, a light bulb and then a variety of materials that student can test the conductivity with. The activity includes directions, a worksheet, and instructions. This is meant to be independent work but can easily be used for small group, center work, or whole group instruction.

This simple homework sheet is for two nights, and requires students to identify things at home that are solutions and mixtures on night, and then describe and identify a physical change and do the same for chemical change. All responses are short answer and require students to apply what they learned in class.

This assessment can be used as a quiz, test, or study guide. It covers parts of an atom including nucleus, protons, electrons, neutrons and more; it also covers topics about physical and chemical changes. There is a variety of matching, multiple choice and draw and labeling.

This simple and well-organized tracking form allows students to track the moon as it appears to them over a one month period. As explained in the directions, the students will draw a representation of the moon every three days totalling 10 images in 30 days. The students will have to record observation notes including components such as the time they observed it as well as anything else they noticed. They will also have to attempt to identify the moon phase. This student centered project can easily be assigned as a homework for students to realize that the moon phase changes gradually over a month period as well as how the time of day the moon is visible changes as well. Students will be so excited to be able to draw, and take ownership over something that is such a normal part of their world!

Facilitate your science labs and expand your students' understanding of the scientific process and method by using this simple and student-friendly template. The template includes Purpose, Hypothesis, Experiment, Observation, Analysis, and Conclusion. It is presented in three different formats for differentiation - one has lines, one has bullet points, and the last has open spaces. Check out my two other versions of the Scientific Method by CLICKING HERE for Version 1 or by CLICKING HERE for Version 2. Each version simply presents the content in a different format to meet the needs of your specific students.

This is an insulator and conductor quiz that has a variety of questions including sorting, multiple choice, and extended response. Students will need to determine if materials are conductors or insulators, will have to compare the two terms and exemplify an understanding of the two.

This fifteen question assessment combines multiple choice and short answer questions and covers topics including comparing physical and chemical changes, measurement, and other properties of matter. This great assessment is the perfect quiz, test, or review for your students!

This is an awesome exploratory learning project for students to learn about and experience color! Students will color two wheels, each with one slice colored in for each color of the rainbow. THIS WILL REQUIRE SOME SORT OF STRING. Thread the string through the two holes as sampled in the ANSWER KEY. Students will then hold each end of the string, and wind up the wheel in the center. When they release the winding, the wheel should spin like a top. Students will then take notes and answer the accompanying questions to describe what they are experiencing. This project will let students explore rainbows, white light, components of light and more!

Check out this bundle that includes a one page study guide that aligns nicely to the assessment. The study guide is very open-ended and requires students to write a 5-sentence paragraph while the assessment includes some fill in the blank, some short answer, and some extended response. This study guide is perfect to assign for homework, while the assessment will give you great insight into students' understanding of sound and its properties.

Check out this awesome assessment that comes with a perfectly aligned study guide that covers topics of for and motion as well as gravity. Questions are presented in multiple choice and short answer on the assessment and multiple short answer multiple short answer questions on the study guide. This can be used in variety of formats from independent work, homework, group work and more, and then coupled with the assessment to offer insight into students' understanding. An answer key is included.

Check out this awesome 4th Grade Science Assessment which contains 40 multiple choice questions. Infused in the questions are topics that cover environmental science, physical science, nature of science, earth science, and natural science. The questions are infused with graphs, pictures, as well as scenarios. This can be a powerful tool in assessing student needs at the beginning of the year, and then progress monitoring them with consistent benchmarks. Additionally, this would be a great assessment to use that mimics what state testing looks like as a spiral review or a formative assessment. It can also be used as a study guide or review before any other assessments you may prepare for! Included in this package is the assessment with a bubble in sheet, as well as an answer key with an answer key bubble in sheet too! Hashtag Teached Resources by is licensed under a .
