Lightning
Students investigate lightning. In this lightning instructional activity, students demonstrate how static electricity is in the air by observing how a balloon reacts to a charge.
Curated OER
Understanding Character
Readers practice character analysis by reviewing Gary Soto's short story "La Bamba" with the whole class (anything you've read together will work). They design t-shirts that feature traits and story elements to reveal the nature of a...
Curated OER
Electricity
Give your science lesson a charge with this presentation on electricity. Each slide contains vocabulary or great information on what electricity is and how it works. Note: This resource would be even better if accompanied by a video and...

Dancing Paper: Static Charge, Science
Students use glass, plastic, paper and various other materials to investigate the properties of static charge and develop scientific inquiry skills.
Curated OER
Electricity 2
Fifth graders build on what they already know and classify examples of electricity in their lives into two categories: static and current electricity. They explore the difference between static and current electricity and provide...
Curated OER
Static Electricity
In this static electricity worksheet, learners review terms and concepts relating to electricity. Students place 21 vocabulary words into a crossword puzzle.
Curated OER
Electricity
Cute cartoons and diagrams help explain electric charge to your physical science buffs. No math is involved even though units for electric charge and voltage are mentioned. This is a pretty neat and straightforward note taking guide for...
Curated OER
A Shocking Experience
Learners differentiate between current and static electricity, conductors and insulators, explain how energy is converted from chemical to electrical, measure voltage of batteries, collect data on voltage, and predict voltage of...
Physics Classroom
Polarization
Are your young physicists static-savvy? Test their skills using an engaging interactive from the Static Electricity series! Learners evaluate scenarios to determine how charges move between conductors and insulators, then identify...
Curated OER
Take Charge!
Students induce an electrical charge on various objects, and experiment with electrical repulsion and attraction. They define related vocabulary, play Bingo and complete a take-home quiz.
Curated OER
Charge and Electricity
For this electricity worksheet, students read about electric charge, ionic notation, and conductors and insulators. Then students complete 19 matching, 6 fill in the blank, and 2 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Introduction to Friction
Students study the properties of the frictional force between two surfaces in contact. They inspect various phenomena in nature where friction plays an important role and demonstrate
Curated OER
Getting A Charge Out of the Sky
Students investigate electricity from the sky. In this electricity lesson, students participate in an experiment to simulate the electric charges from the sky. Students discuss results.
Curated OER
You’re Tugging at Me!
Students study the sliding and rolling friction. In this forces lesson students divide into groups and use a cart to examine the amount of force that is used to move objects.
Curated OER
Do You Have Character?
Sixth graders read Katherine Paterson's novel, Bridge to Terabithia, and watch a video of Maurice Sendak's book, Where the Wild Things Are. They examine the characters in both stories that share similar characteristics. Students use the...
