What is the best 5th grade science project ever?
We absolutely love the Uncovering Fall Colors science fair project for 5th graders. This project uses chromatography to separate the colors in leaves and helps students discover the hidden colors inside them. It's a great way to learn how to use a common experiment used in chemistry to separate substances. If it's not fall or you can't find different colored leaves, you can always use flower petals of different colors instead.

What are 5 testable questions for 5th grade?
A testable question is a question that we can answer through a science experiment. To do this, we do a control science experiment, then we change one thing in the experiment to see how it affects what happens. This is how we can discover the answer to our question!
