Fifth Grade Science Standards Syllabus 1st Nine Standard 5.1 Matter is everywhere – Adding air to expand a basketball, dissolving sugar in water, evaporating salt water to prove that matter is made of particles too small to be seen. Standard 5.2 Matter Changing States – Solid, Liquid or Gases The weight of a substance does not change when melted or dissolved into a substance. Standards- 5.3 and 5.5 Properties of Matter Be able to tell the difference of powders, metals, minerals and liquids based on their properties such as color, hardness, reflectivity, electrical conductivity and magnetic forces. Chemical Properties the substance changes into something completely different (wood Burning) – Physical Properties the substance is still the same thing it just looks different (Cutting an apple) – Standard- 5.4 Mixtures Mix different substances such as baking soda and vinegar, water and rocks and record the changes. Did they change into something different? Did the temp change? Standard 5.3 and 5.5 Properties of Matter – Density affects whether an object sinks or floats when placed in liquid. When reading a cylinder you read from the bottom line not the top curve.
