Three types of rocks
Geologists are people who study rocks. There are three main groups
of rocks.

One of these groups of rocks are called igneous rocks. These rocks
come from volcanic eruptions. They are formed from magma that has
cooled beneath the earths surface.

Some igneous rocks are smooth as they cool and harden quickly.
Some igneous rocks are very coarse and rough, these rocks cool
and harden slowly.

There are many types of igneous rocks. Granite is an igneous rock

as is basalt, earth's most common rock.

Sedimentary rock is another rock group. It is formed from sediment

like sand, seashells and clay. Over many years these layers of
sediment are compressed into rock. Sandstone is a sedimentary
rock and is found in many different colours.

Metamorphic rock is not so easily found as this rock is formed deep

underground, where heat changes the rocks composition marble into
a metamorphic rock.

Biography Sir Isaac Newton

Sir Issac Newton (1643-1726) was an

English mathematician, physicist and
scientist. He is widely regarded as one of the
most influential scientists of all time,
developing new laws of mechanics, gravity
and laws of motion. His work Principia
Mathematica (1687) laid the framework for
the Scientific Revolution of the Seventeenth
Century. A great polymath, Newton's
investigations also included areas of optics,

Scientific Achievements of Newton

Ÿ Optics - Newton made great advancements in the study of optics. In

particular, he developed the spectrum by splitting white light through a
prism.
Ÿ Telescope Made significant improvements to the development of the
telescope. However, when his ideas were criticized by Hooke, Newton
withdrew from the public debate. He developed an antagonistic and
hostile attitude to Hooke, throughout his life.
Ÿ Mechanics and Gravitation. In his famous book Principia
Mathematica. (1687) Newton explained the three laws of motion that
laid the framework for modern physics. This involved explaining
planetary movements.

Newton hit on the head with an Apple

The most popular anecdote about Sir Isaac Newton is the story of how
the theory of gravitation came to him, after being hit on the head with a
falling apple. In reality, Newton and his friends may have exaggerated this
story. Nevertheless, it is quite likely that seeing apples fall from trees may
have influenced his theories of gravity.

59
 Cai Lun Biography
Cai Lun (AD 50-121) Inventor of paper. An invention
that truly changed the world. Cai Lun (Ts'ai Lun) was
born in Guiyang during the Eastern Han Dynasty.
After serving as a court eunuch from AD 75, he was
given several promotions under the rule of Emperor
He of Han. In AD 89, he was promoted and given the
title of Shang Fang Si, an office in charge of
manufacturing instruments and weapons. He
also became a Regular Palace Attendant. He was
involved in palace intrigue as a supporter of

Empress Dou, and in the death of her romantic rival, Consort Song.
After the death of EmpressDou in AD 97, he became an associate of
Consort Deng Sui.
In A.D. 105, Cai invented the composition for paper along with the
papermaking process though he may have been credited with an
invention of someone from a lower class. Tools and machinery of
papermaking in modern times may be more complex, but they still
employ the ancient technique which involves. Felted sheets of fibre
suspended in water, draining of the water, and then drying into a thin
matted sheet. For this invention, Cai would be world-renowned
posthumously, and even in his own time, he was given recognition for his
invention.
Christopher Columbus Biography
Christopher Columbus
(1451-1506) was an Italian explorer, colonizer, and
navigator. He is remembered as the principal
European discoverer of the Americas and he helped
bring the Americas to the forefront of the western
consciousness. His discoveries and travels laid the
framework for the later European colonisation of Latin
and North America. Christopher Columbus was a "
believer in the spherical nature of the world (some Christians still held the
view that the world was flat).
"You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose
sight of the shore.

60
Christopher Columbus
Columbus made a total of four journeys, where he sailed extensively
around the Caribbean islands of Cuba, Jamaica, the Bahamas and also
to the mainland, to places such as Panama.
Columbus was not the first person to reach America. Previous successful
voyages included a Norse expedition led by Leif Ericson. However,
Columbus was the first to travel to America and establish permanent
settlements. Columbus' voyages and reports, over the next 400 years
encouraged all the major European powers to seek to colonise parts of
America.

Galileo Galilei Biography

Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) - Italian astronomer,
scientist and philosopher, who played a leading role in
the Scientific Revolution. Galileo improved the
telescope and made many significant discoveries in
astronomy. His findings encouraged him to speak out
for the Copernican view that the earth revolved
around the sun. However, his views were considered
heretical, and he was placed under house arrest. His greatest scientific
works included Two New Sciences about kinetics and the strength of
materials.
Galileo made important discoveries about gravity, inertia and also
developed the forerunner of the thermometer. He also worked on the
pendulum clock Galileo also worked tirelessly on the science of
gnomonics (telling time by shadows) and the laws of motion.
By inventing the world's first powerful telescope, Galileo was able to
make many ground-breaking explorations of the universe. His telescopes
increased magnification from around just 2x to around 30x magnification.
Using this new telescope he found that: Saturn had a beautiful ring of
clouds.The moon was not flat but had mountains and craters.Using his
own telescope, he discovered four moons of Jupiter lo, Ganymede,
Callisto, and Europa. He also noted these moons revolved around
Jupiter rather than the sun.The Great Inventions of 19th and 20th century

61
Radio
The first radios were made in the 1920s by Guglielmo Marconi is known
for his pioneer work on radio transmission. They only made a faint sound
so people had to listen to them with headphones. In the 1950s portable
radios became possible because transistors were invented. One small
transistor can replace many parts radios need. Radio waves are all
around you, but you cannot hear them. They travel at the speed of light.
Radio stations turn sound waves from voices or music into radio waves
and send them through air and radio turns them back into sound waves
so you can hear. Ships use radios to contact each other or the shore,
aircraft crews use them to talk to control towers.

Telephone
A telephone, or phone, is a device that allows two or more users to speak
with each other when they are too far away to be heard directly. When we
talk in a telephone our voice is turned into signals which passes through
the telephone line. In 1876 Graham Bell was the first person to invent
telephones. There are three parts of a telephone, a microphone through
which we speak, an earphone through which we hear the voice of the
other person and a dialer for dialing numbers. And now people use mobile
phones also known as CELL PHONES, mobiles, phones
do not have a wire attached to them we can take them anywhere and also
recharge them. There

Airplanes
For hundreds of years people tried to fly by copying birds. They built
wings from feathers and jumped from high places. They always crashed
because human chest muscles cannot flap wings fast enough to fly. The
Wright Brothers made the first powered aero plane flight of 36.5 meters in
1903. They built their own petrol engine to drive two propellers fixed to a
glider frame. Early aero planes were light and unstable and the engines
often failed. Flying them was exciting but dangerous. By 1930s aircraft
with four engines was able to carry up to 30 passengers as fast as 193
km/h, it was fast and comfortable. Modern jumbo jet planes can carry
hundreds of people at speed of 969 km/then came supersonic jets which
were speedy and efficient.

62
Computers
In olden days there were machines that filled the whole room, they were
only used for calculation and nothing else. Alan Turing was the pioneer in
the development of intelligent machines used for calculations. In 1958 a
silicon chip was invented, the invention of this chip meant that people
could make smaller and faster computers which could do much more.
These new computers performed many tasks at a time. You can read
books, search for things around the world and also play games, paint,
draw and listen to music. Sending and receiving messages became more
easy and fast.

Bulbs
A light bulb is a device that produces light from electricity. In addition to
lighting a dark space, they can be used to show an electronic device is on,
to direct traffic, for heat, and many other purposes.
Early people used candles and oil lamps for light. Crude incandescent
lights were made in the early and middle 19th century but had little use.
Thomas Edison is known to create the first commercially practical
incandescent light. Improved vacuum pumps and better materials made
them shine longer and brighter late in the century. Electric generator
stations brought electricity to urban and later rural areas to power them.
Later gas discharge lights, including fluorescent lights were developed
which use less electricity to make more light.

Types of light bulbs

Ÿ Fluorescent light bulbs

Ÿ incandescent and LED

Wheels
The invention of the wheel is one of the man's most important invention.
The first wheel was invented in the year 3500 BC was made of wood.
Before that rounded wheel was used to pull or
move things.
• The earliest wheels were used as potter's wheels. They were invented in
Mesopotamia about 5,500 years ago.
• The wheelbarrow-a simple cart with a single wheel-was invented by the
ancient Greeks.
Types of wheel: aluminum, steel and rubber

geologists work in the mining business searching for metals, oils, and
other Earth resources. They are also in the forefront of natural hazards
and disasters prevention and mitigation, studying natural hazards such
as earthquakes, volcanic activity, tsunamis weather storms. Their studies
are used to warn the general public of the occurrence of these events.
Geologists are also important contributors to climate change discussions.

Botanist:
Botany, also called plant sciences, plant biology or phytology, it is the
science of plant life and a branch of biology. A botanist or plant scientist
is a scientist who specializes in this field. The term "botany" comes from
the Ancient Greek word (botane) meaning "grass".

Currency:

A currency is a unit of exchange, facilitating the transfer of goods and

services. It is a form of money, where money is defined as a medium of
exchange rather than e.g. a store of value. A currency zone is a country
or region in which a specific currency is the dominant medium of
exchange. To facilitate trade between currency zones, there are
exchange rates i.e. prices at which currencies (and the goods and
services of individual currency zones) can be exchanged against each
other.

Cotton
Cotton is a soft, fluffy staple fiber that grows in a boll, or protective case,
around the seeds of the cotton plants of the genus Gossypium in the
mallow family Malvaceae. The fiber is almost pure cellulose. Under
natural conditions, the cotton bolls will increase the dispersal of the seeds.

History of Cotton
No one knows exactly how old cotton is. Scientists searching caves in
Mexico found bits of cotton bolls and pieces of cotton cloth that proved to
be at least 7,000 years old. They also found that the cotton itself was
much like that grown in America today.
In the Indus River Valley in Pakistan, cotton was being grown, spun and
woven into cloth 3,000 years BC. At about the same time, natives of
Egypt's Nile valley were making and wearing cotton clothing.
Arab merchants brought cotton cloth to Europe about 800 A.D. When
Columbus discovered America in 1492, he found cotton growing in the
Bahama Islands. By 1500, cotton was known generally throughout the
world.
Cotton seed are believed to have been planted in Florida in 1556 and in
Virginia in 1607. By 1616, colonists were growing cotton along the James
River in Virginia.

LATITUDE & LONGITUDE
Earth is basically a sphere turning on an axis, much the way a top spins.
The North Pole is at one end of the axis. The South Pole is at the other
end. Between the poles-exactly in the middle-is an imaginary line called
the equator.

LINES OF LATITUDE
The latitude of a place is its distance north or south of the equator.

The equator itself is zero degrees latitude (0°). The degree of latitude is
the same as the degree of the angle formed between the equator and
points north and south. Imagine you could draw a line from the North Pole
into the center of Earth and from the center straight to the surface. The
lines would form a 90° angle. That's why the North Pole has the latitude
90° N, and the South Pole hasthe latitude 90° S.

Lines of Latitude run parallel to the equator and are often referred to as
parallels.

90
Line of longitude
Lines of longitude, which run the length of Earth (think long), go from the
North Pole to the South Pole and intersect lines of latitude at right angle.

Imagine Earth as a circle. Like all circles, it can be divided into 360
degrees. Each degree is a line of longitude. There are 180 degrees to the
east and 180 degrees to the west. Lines of longitude are closest together
near the poles and farthest apart at the equator.

Our Solar System
Our Solar System is made up of eight planets. The eight planets of the
Solar System in order are Mercury. Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn,
Uranus and Neptune. We live on the planet Earth. All of the planets
revolve around the sun which is a star.
Have fun coloring the sun and planets of the Solar System below and then
circle the correct answers to the questions about the Solar System on the

Planet Facts

There are 8 planets in our solar system, they

are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
Planets in our solar system can be divided into two main groups,
Terrestrial Planets and Gas Giants. Planets that orbit other stars are
referred to as Exoplanets.

Facts about the Planets

Mercury's craters are named after famous artists, musicians and

authors.Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system.
Earth's atmosphere protects us from meteoroids and radiation from the
Sun.There have been more missions to
Mars than any other planet.
Jupiter has more than double the mass of all the other planets
combined.
Saturn has more moons than any other planet in the Solar System.
Uranus has only been visited by a single spacecraft, Voyager 2.
It takes like more than 4 hours for light to reach Neptune from the Sun.
Only 8 planets have been discovered in our solar system but there is
compelling evidence for a 9th planet.
With the exception of Neptune and Uranus the other 6 planets can be
seen unaided and all 8 arevisible with a small telescope or binoculars.
Together the planets make up 0.14% of the solar systems mass, 99% of
which is the gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune).
Except for the Earth, the planets are named after gods from Roman and
Greek mythology.

What is a Planet?

Planets are among the many worlds and smaller objects that orbit the
Sun. The formal definition of planet, as voted on by the International
Astronomical Union in 2006, is as follows:
A planet is a celestial body that
a. is in orbit around the Sun,
b. has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so
that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape, and
c. has cleared the neighbourhood around its orbit.
Under this definition, Pluto is NOT a planet, but has been deemed a
dwarf planet because it has not yet cleared its orbit. This definition is
under discussion, particularly by members of the planetary science
community, and it may yet be further refined.

Grade 5 Reading Comprehension Worksheet

Glaciers

Read the passage. Then answer the questions.

Glaciers are made up of fallen snow that, over
many years, compresses into large, thickened
Ice masses. Glaciers form when snow remains
in one location long enough to transform into ice.
Presently, glaciers occupy about 10 percent of
the world's total land area, with most located in
Polar Regions like Antarctica, Greenland, and
the Canadian Arctic. Glaciers also exist high in
mountain ranges such as the Himalayas and the Andes. Although glaciers
are made of ice and appear to be sitting still, they are actually moving. The
weight of a glacier will cause it to move slowly down hill, sort of like a very
slow moving river. The speed of glaciers varies widely with some moving
as slow as a few feet a year while others may move several feet per day.
Scientists have given names to different types of glaciers. Here are a few
of the main types: Ice cap-An ice cap is formed when ice completely
covers an area of land such that no part of the land, not even mountain
peaks, poke through the top of the ice cap. Polar A polar glacier is one that
is formed in an area where the temperature is
always below the freezing point.
Most of the country of Greenland is covered with a giant icecap that is ant
icecap nearly two miles thick in areas. Because of friction, the top of a
glacier moves faster than the bottom. At over 125 miles long, Bering
Glacier in Alaska is the longest glacier in the United States.
Answer each question.
1. What are the glaciers?
2. Where most of the glaciers are located?
3. Do the glaciers move?
4. How the polar glaciers do formed?
6. Name the longest glacier of the United States?
5. Why the top of a glacier moves faster than the bottom?
