Part of: [Georgia: Science](https://ai.page/roadmap/ga-sci.md)

Goal: Georgia academic standards: Science, Grade 5

## 1. Life Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about how microorganisms benefit or harm larger organisms.

- [Classifying Organisms](https://ai.page/c/classifying-organisms/index.md): Describe how living things are classified into broad groups (micro-organisms, plants, animals) according to common observable characteristics, similarities, and differences

## 2. Life Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to compare and contrast the parts of plant and animal cells.

- [Plant Cells vs Animal Cells](https://ai.page/c/plant-cells-vs-animal-cells/index.md): Compare plant and animal cells, identifying shared features and structures unique to plant cells (cell wall, vacuole, chloroplasts)

## 3. Life Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information showing that some characteristics of organisms are inherited and other characteristics are acquired.

- [Inheritance Vocabulary](https://ai.page/c/inheritance-vocabulary/index.md): Use vocabulary for variation and inheritance — inherited characteristic, acquired characteristic, variation, offspring, trait, species, breed, genetic, environment — and apply these when comparing organisms and explaining similarities and differences within and between species
- [Inherited characteristics](https://ai.page/c/inherited-characteristics/index.md): Analyse and interpret data to provide evidence that plants and animals have traits inherited from parents and that variation of these traits exists in a group of similar organisms

## 4. Physical Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about magnetism and its relationship to electricity.

- [Magnetic Fields](https://ai.page/c/magnetic-fields/index.md): Describe magnetic poles (north and south), explain attraction and repulsion between poles, describe magnetic field lines plotted using a compass, and explain the Earth's magnetic field and its practical uses
- [Electromagnets](https://ai.page/c/electromagnets/index.md): Describe the magnetic effect of an electric current (a current-carrying wire produces a magnetic field), and investigate how the strength of an electromagnet depends on current, number of coil turns, and core material

## 5. Physical Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to investigate electricity.

- [Material Properties Vocabulary](https://ai.page/c/material-properties-vocabulary/index.md): Use technical vocabulary to describe and compare material properties — conductor, insulator, thermal, electrical, transparent, opaque, translucent, soluble, insoluble, magnetic, flexible, rigid, density — and apply these terms precisely when selecting and justifying materials for particular purposes
- [Building an energy-converting device](https://ai.page/c/building-an-energy-converting-device/index.md): Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another
- [Static electricity and sparks](https://ai.page/c/static-electricity-and-sparks/index.md): Explain static electricity as the build-up of electric charge through friction, describe how charged objects attract or repel each other, and relate static discharge to everyday phenomena such as lightning

## 6. Physical Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to explain the differences between a physical change and a chemical change.

- [Physical vs Chemical Changes](https://ai.page/c/physical-vs-chemical-changes/index.md): Distinguish between physical changes (reversible, no new substances formed) and chemical changes (new substances formed, often irreversible), using conservation of mass to understand both types

## 7. Earth and Space Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to identify surface features on the Earth caused by constructive and/or destructive processes.

- [Natural Disaster Solutions](https://ai.page/c/natural-disaster-solutions/index.md): Generate and compare multiple solutions to reduce the impacts of natural Earth processes on humans, such as earthquakes, floods, or volcanic eruptions
- [Finding patterns in data](https://ai.page/c/finding-patterns-in-data/index.md): Analyse and interpret data from maps to describe patterns of Earth's features, recognising that many features result from processes that occur over long periods
