This document is a compilation of force and motion assessments that I created for my 5th Graders. This is geared toward 5th grade, but can be used for 4th or 6th- 7th as well. The topics of the questions range from Newton's Laws of Motion to Friction and Gravity. The questions are varied, and include multiple choice, short answer, and understanding diagrams/responding. These are a great way to get data on your instruction!

This is a collection of 10 mini-assessments that can be used with an ecosystems unit. They have multiple choice, short answer, and open ended question options. There is clip art and each page looks student-friendly.

This is a force and motion unit-ending test. It has multiple choice questions, short answer, and questions with pictures and diagrams. There is an answer key included in the document.

This is a collection of multiple choice and short answer test questions for ecosystems. The topics covered are: basic needs, types of ecosystems and their characteristics, adaptation, and how humans affect the environment.

Students complete a classwork activity where questions about the water cycle are throughout the room. They answer them and check if their answers are correct. There is a blank answer sheet at the end. There is not an answer key because all correct answers can be found using the QR codes.

This is a collection of response pages for students to use as they are reading. I copy them back to back, and staple them into a booklet. The kids love being able to create their own book, and have it throughout the week instead of a page each day.

The students use the booklet to walk through the history of catapults, then work together to design their own catapult so they can fling a plastic cow!

This is a collection of 17 different graphic organizers that can be used to accompany a reading comprehension program. There are organizers for help with tracking thoughts, making connections, FQR, and much more. There also many pages that have color, clip art, and a kid-friendly design.

This is a 1/2 page activity sheet to help students understand Newton's 3rd Law of Motion. It includes materials and procedures. There are also questions to respond to the activity.

A 1/2 page quiz that tests a student's knowledge of static electricity.

A 1/2 page quiz about weather fronts.

A short 1/2 page experiment for students to use as they test how objects fall.

This is a worksheet that has: 1/2 of the page is a bubble map for "why motion stops" and then some discussion points, and relates friction to sports. 1/2 of the page is an experiment that your small groups can complete. They test the movement of marbles of various surfaces to determine which surface it rolls on the quickest, which will have the least amount of friction.

3 different observations sheets for your many levels of students in your class. Ranges from Kindergarten level to 5th grade.

This is an informational sheet and accompanying chart that students can use to remember the forces that cause change to the earth.

A quick 1-page test of Newton's 3 Laws of Motion.

This is an experiment sheet that helps the students walk through the scientific process.

A simple organizer with a planet in each box.

Students follow along with this group activity to learn more about electricity.
