The Solutions science writing activity gives 5th grade students the necessary materials to test their knowledge of chemistry! The activity uses an interview question and answer model to create a fun, engaging print-or-digital exercise. Students can extend their science reasoning and exploration as they enrich their writing. Each product has been created to allow for virtual learning so 5th grade science students can stay engaged inside or outside the classroom.

Available in 32 individual or bundled topics (click here for the BIG bundle), each writing prompt activity is TEKS- or NGSS-aligned. Creative, low-prep, and high-quality, student-centered writing activities work for elaboration or review with other Kesler Science products.
