Practice matter and its interactions with this free, editable 5th grade lesson. Aligned to the NGSS (5-PS1), covering objectives such as: develop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen. Created with Chalkie.ai and fully customizable for your class.
This 5th grade Earth's systems lesson is ready to present in class. Aligned to the NGSS (5-ESS2), covering objectives such as: develop a model using an example to describe ways the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere interact. Made on Chalkie.ai.
Help your 5th grade students explore ecosystems with this editable lesson. Aligned to the NGSS (5-LS2), covering objectives such as: develop a model to describe the movement of matter among plants, animals, decomposers, and the environment. Sign up free to Chalkie.ai.
A NGSS-aligned 5th grade lesson covering engineering design (3-5-ETS1), including objectives such as: define a simple design problem reflecting a need or a want that includes specified criteria for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost. Fully editable on Chalkie.ai.
Particles too small to see, planet-scale systems, and the flow of matter through ecosystems: 5th grade NGSS asks students to reason about things they cannot directly observe — which is what makes it fun to teach. These 5th grade science lessons cover the grade's key performance expectations: modeling matter as particles (5-PS1), describing interactions among the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere (5-ESS2), tracing matter through ecosystems (5-LS2), and defining design problems with criteria and constraints (3-5-ETS1).
Modeling is the through-line. Each deck has students building, critiquing, or using a model, because that is the practice these standards name. The slides supply the visuals and structure; students supply the reasoning.
Preview the lessons free, then shape them in Chalkie: swap the ecosystem for one your students know, connect the Earth systems lesson to recent local weather, or reframe the engineering problem around a real need at your school. Editing and regenerating are part of the free plan.
