A four-unit, approximately 60-day Grade 5 Science learning path aligned with the Alberta Program of Studies and Edmonton Public Schools expectations. Students investigate electricity, electrical mechanisms, weather, and wetland ecosystems through inquiry, hands-on experimentation, data collection, modelling, communication, and responsible decision-making.

Over approximately 15 days, students develop foundational understandings of electrical energy and simple circuits. They identify common electrical components, distinguish conductors from insulators, construct and troubleshoot series circuits, and describe how energy is transferred and transformed. Students use diagrams, observations, and evidence to explain how switches control circuits and why electrical safety is important. Learning emphasizes questioning, predicting, fair testing, recording results, and communicating conclusions.
