Brain and Nerves Worksheets for 4th and 5th Grade

What your child practices

Brain and Nerves comes alive in 6 worksheets for 4th and 5th grade science (Grades 4 to 5 in Canada), with 58 questions in total. In grades 3 to 5, science asks children to explain why things happen, not only what happens, and Brain and Nerves is a great place to practice that kind of thinking. It opens with a guided Learn and Practice page, moves on to a practice sheet and a review test, then finishes with two quick quizzes and a mixed review. Each sheet supports NGSS 4-LS1-2, covering how living things are built, grow and survive. In Canada it matches the BC curriculum for Grade 4. Each PDF includes its own answer key on page 2, ready for you or your child to check. New to the idea? Watch the Brain and Nerves video lesson, then print a sheet while it is fresh.

Tips for parents

• Ask your child to explain the idea using a diagram or a quick sketch.
• Let your child predict an answer before reading, then check if the prediction held up.
• Connect Brain and Nerves to something at home: the kitchen, the yard or the sky tonight.
