Science Summary 2nd Semester for Grade 5 (Updated 2025)

A device that converts natural energy into useful work is called an engine. Contact force is the force of attraction between any two objects. Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass and weight. Friction is the force that resists motion between surfaces. Light energy is the energy we can see. Chemical energy is stored in chemical bonds, and kinetic energy is energy of motion. Liquid becomes gas at the boiling point of a substance. The boiling point and condensation point of water is 100°C. Ice is lighter than water because it is less dense.

The chromosphere is the sun's atmosphere. Lunar eclipses happen when the moon passes through Earth's shadow. The troposphere is the layer of the atmosphere that is closest to the Earth. The ozone layer is the layer that protects Earth from ultraviolet rays. 21% of air is oxygen. 93,000,000 mi is the distance of the sun from Earth. In the mesosphere, meteoroids burn up.

Crescent is the first moon phase after a new moon. Mercury is the planet closest to the sun. Venus is known as Earth’s bright twin but is inhospitable. Jupiter is the largest planet and the 5th from the sun. Saturn has seven rings and is three planets away from Earth. Uranus lies on its side and has 27 moons. Neptune is the last planet in the solar system and has fast winds. Mars is a red one shining bright in the night.

A scientist who studies weather is a meteorologist. Rising air, water vapor, and dust are the three ingredients to form clouds. Sea fog is the fog that forms over oceans. Altocumulus cloud is bumpy and white and floats at medium height. Cumulonimbus is the cloud type that produces thunder, rain, and hail.

Science G5 Semester 1 Summary (Updated)

Science is search for the laws of nature and for ways to use them for the benefit of mankind. A scientist is like a detective, searching for law and order as he or she investigates the creation of God. Senses, intelligence, books, and equipment are four basic tools you have to investigate nature. Tongue is the one sense you should not use.

Queen bee is a female bee that mates and lays eggs. Drone-a male bee; has no stinger and does no work. Only female bees can sting! A bee's stinger is a modified egg-laying structure, or ovipositor Pollen is the yellow "dust" that flowers use in producing seeds. Worker-a female bee that does not mate and lay eggs. Nectar is a sweet liquid made by flowers in order to attract insects. Pollination is the transfer of pollen from male to female plant parts. Honeybees survive in the winter by stay close together in their hive and move their wings to stay warm. Hibernate means to sleep through the winter. The ways you can prevent bee stings are: Stay away from insect nests; do not try to shoo insects away; be careful while you are mowing the lawn, pulling weeds, or cutting vines; do not go barefoot. Beetles is the insect order that is identified by a straight line down its abdomen. True bugs is the insect order identified by a V or X on its abdomen.

Almost every food chain begin with a green plant. Ray flowers are the white flowers that surround the daisy's disk flowers. Shrew is a tiny insectivore that must eat almost 24 hours a day. Polar bear fur appears white but is actually clear, hollow fibbers. The only flying mammal bat. Platypus is an egg-laying mammal with a bill. Panda is a carnivore that eats mostly bamboo

Opaque-does not let light pass through translucent-allows light to pass through, but scatters the light. Transparent-allows light to pass through; clear. The speed of light approximately 186,000 miles per second. Shadow is a a spot of darkness cast by an opaque object. Natural light comes from an object God made; artificial light comes from a man-made object. Thomas Edison invent the electric light bulb. An incandescent bulb works by heating a thin tungsten wire inside a glass bulb with electricity until it glows. Convex mirror is a mirror that bulges toward the viewer (it's scatter light) and concave mirrors focus light. The headlight is luminous, but the reflector is not. Leaves look green because they absorb all other colors in light and reflect green.

Tide is the systematic rise and fall of ocean water every six hours. Neap tide is a tide in which there is less of a difference between high and low tides. Spring tide-a tide which is higher or lower than normal tides. The three intertidal zones are: high-barnacles, middle-seaweed, mussels, whelk. low-kelp, sea urchins, sea anemones. The gravity of the moon and the sun pulling on the earth's waters causes tides. Algae helpful to people as fertilizer, as a source of iodine, in food, and in drug products

God’s Word is real and factual. The Bible sets the standard for a Christian’s faith and behaviour. God’s Word equips Christians to know who God is, what He is like, and how to do His will. The Bible reveals God’s truth. It provides guidance and direction for Christians. The fact that the Bible is God’s Word is proven by the fulfillment of prophecy, because people cannot accurately predict the future.

People who place their trust in God and believe His Word show that they have faith in the Lord. Knowing and trusting the truth of God’s Word helps Christians take action that affects their life and the lives of those around them. Inspired by God means to be influenced or guided by God. God’s omnipresence is always present, God’s ability to be everywhere at the same time. The eternal nature of God is that He has always been and always will be. God is not only everywhere at once, but He is also actively involved in the lives of His people. God’s presence offers comfort during lonely times.

Those who accept Jesus as their Savior never need to worry about being alone. God is always with them and will never leave them.
