What your child practices

This 3rd to 5th grade science set (Grades 3 to 5 in Canada) explores Friction through 6 worksheets and 58 questions. In grades 3 to 5, science asks children to explain why things happen, not only what happens, and Friction 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. The skill matches NGSS 3-PS2-1, the standard for forces, motion and how objects interact. In Canada it matches the BC curriculum for Grade 2. Each PDF includes its own answer key on page 2, ready for you or your child to check. New to the idea? Watch the Friction 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 Friction to something at home: the kitchen, the yard or the sky tonight.
