How to use this worksheet

Turn the energy questions into a household audit. List which appliances your family uses most, then ask which of them could run on a renewable source. Grade 5 students find renewable versus non-renewable abstract until it is attached to something that is actually plugged in.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. The best soil for plants is:
2. Which rock is igneous?

Frequently asked questions

Does my child need to memorise statistics?

No. Grade 5 questions ask for processes and reasons, not figures. Understanding how deforestation removes habitat matters far more than remembering a number.

Is climate change part of this topic?

It appears in a simple form through emissions, fuels and tree cover. The worksheets stay on observable causes and effects rather than detailed climate science.

My child gets anxious about environmental problems. Any advice?

Spend proportionally more time on the conservation and action questions than the pollution ones, and end each session with something your family can control. Agency reduces worry more effectively than reassurance does.
