Identify conductivity
Fifth graders identify conductivity as a property of matter that describes how well a material allows heat or electricity to flow through it, categorizing common substances as conductors or insulators. Teachers can use this worksheet to consolidate understanding after a hands-on circuit or heat-transfer investigation, connecting the observed behavior of materials to the scientific vocabulary of conductivity. It sits within the Physical Science Properties of Matter unit and prepares students for more advanced electrical concepts in middle school.
Learning objectives
- Identify conductivity as a physical property related to heat and electrical flow
