Electricity Is Elementary: The Exciting Flow Of Electrons (Edme Science)

This original work contains 17 readings with 151 comprehension questions all about electricity. These readings explain the nature of electricity, electromagnetic waves, energy, and their application in cutting-edge technologies. The questions build vocabulary, find evidence in the text and connect ideas in informational texts. There are also 7 activities requiring students to use graphic organizers or write paragraphs explaining science concepts.There are an additional 3 chapters with hands-on experiments that can be done for less than $10 (users may need to acquire 9V battery, LED light, and two wires).We created this material for teachers looking for materials to support reading-across-the-curriculum initiatives. This book covers electrical topics in grades 4 and 5 while supporting reading comprehension skills at these levels. Keys are included within the book.List of readings: Chapter 1.
