Science ideas click fastest with real practice. This set gives your Grade 5 class ninety questions on current and magnetic fields.
Students will answer questions such as "Why do power lines often use high-voltage currents?", "How can a magnetic field be used to generate electricity?", and "What direction does the magnetic field take around a straight wire carrying current?"
All three worksheets cover the same topic in different question styles. That means you can use one as a pretest, another for practice or homework, and the third as a follow up quiz, without students ever seeing the same question twice.
This set is part of a standards aligned science unit. The unit also covers Conductors and Insulators in Circuits, Understanding Closed Circuits, Open and Closed Circuit Paths, Generating Static Electricity, Observing Static Charge Effects, and Electrical Energy Changing to Light, all in the same three worksheet format, so your classroom routine stays familiar while the topic changes.
Suitable for Grade 5 science classes, and for review at any point in the school year. This set is aligned to Virginia SOL standard 5.4.e.
