1 FORMATIVE MINI ASSESSMENTS Third Grading Period February 1-5 STUDENT NAME DATE Science Grade 4 Read each question and choose the best answer. Be sure to mark all of your answers. + Switch Lightbulb Battery Some images copyright 2004 JupiterImages 1. Gather materials. You will need a battery, a switch, 5 pieces of wire, and 2 light bulbs. 2. Connect wires to each end of the battery. Do not touch the wires together. 3. Connect one of the wires to the switch. Make sure the switch is open. 4. Connect the light bulb to the switch and to the other battery wire. 5. Close the switch to turn the circuit on. 6. Open the switch and add the other light bulb to the circuit. Close the switch. Is the light bulb as bright as it was before? 7. Record results in your journal and return your materials. 1 According to the instructions shown, what is the last step that should be followed in this investigation? A student A tries to make different circuits B connects both light bulbs C turns the switch to Off D cleans up personal lab materials 2 When a student performed the investigation shown, he followed these steps: He connected wires to the ends of the battery. He connected the switch to the battery and to the light bulb. He turned the switch on, but the light bulb did not light up. What should he do now? F He should put the items away for another day. G He should try to troubleshoot the circuit system. H He should give up and ask his partners to troubleshoot the circuit system. J He should try to set-up a different circuit system. #1-4, 6, 8, 14 EDUSOFT 04 Science FMA February 10 Page 1

2 3 The science class is doing a lab experiment to find out the density of frozen water. Which of these is an unsafe practice? A student A listens for the teacher s instructions as his group begins their experiment B follows directions about adding equal amounts of water into two containers C places the ice cubes in his mouth to help them melt D helps to prepare the data table for his group results 6 Changes in the amount of Moon that is visible are called phases of the Moon. The pattern of phases repeats itself about every F year G month H week J day 4 One night, a student saw a group of stars just above the horizon to the east. The next morning, she saw the same group of stars above the horizon to the west. What caused the group of stars to appear to move? F Earth turning on its axis G Earth moving around the sun H The Milky Way galaxy spinning J The stars moving around Earth 5 In the science lab, a student conducted an experiment to see what would happen when a small amount of hot, blue-colored water was added to a large cup of clear water at room temperature. She noticed that the blue water floated on top of the clear water. This happened because A the blue water got hotter after it was poured in the cup B the water in the cup got colder after the blue water was added C the hot blue water is denser than the clear water in the cup D the clear water in the cup is denser than the hot blue water Paper String Nail Wooden Block Some images 2005 JupiterImages Corporation 7 If the materials shown above were used in an investigation along with a light bulb, some wires, and a battery, which hypothesis below could be tested? A A nail will conduct electricity, but a wooden block will not. B A wooden block will float, but a nail will not. C Paper is a source of energy, but string is not. D String costs more to buy than wood, paper or a nail. #1-4, 6, 8, 14 EDUSOFT 04 Science FMA February 10 Page 2

3 Sun Precipitation from Clouds Evaporation from land and the ocean Ocean Water in the ground 8 Energy from the Sun F evaporates water G causes water to change into ice H causes water to flow from rivers to the ocean J helps water soak into the ground 9 Look at the picture above. What would happen if the clouds were taken out of the system? A The ocean water would get colder. B There would be more cloudy days. C There would be no evaporation. D There would not be any condensation. #1-4, 6, 8, 14 EDUSOFT 04 Science FMA February 10 Page 3

4 Results of Circuit Tests Number of Light Bulbs Number of D-Cell Batteries Brightness of Lights 1 1 brightest 2 1 fairly bright 3 1 not very bright 4 1 dim 10 Using the table shown above, what conclusion can be made from the information given? F The more light bulbs in a series circuit, the brighter those light bulbs will be. G The less light bulbs in a series circuit, the brighter those light bulbs will be. H The circuits that used C-Cells burned brighter than those that used D-Cells. J All the circuits tested had light bulbs that glowed with the same brightness. 11 This circuit system can be used to see if materials conduct electricity. Which of the following groups contain items that will all conduct electricity to complete the circuit? A Rubber ball, plastic comb, nail B Paper clip, penny, screw C Cork, dollar bill, tweezers D Pencil, eraser, spoon #1-4, 6, 8, 14 EDUSOFT 04 Science FMA February 10 Page 4

5 12 In which container will the water evaporate most quickly? F H G J #1-4, 6, 8, 14 EDUSOFT 04 Science FMA February 10 Page 5

6 13 All of these space objects move in a pattern except A constellations B the Sun C the Moon D the clouds A 50 ml 40 ml B 50 ml 40 ml 30 ml 30 ml 20 ml 20 ml 10 ml 10 ml 15 Graduated Cylinder A shows the amount of water that was measured and then poured into a shallow pan. Three days later, the students measured the water left in the pan by using Graduated Cylinder B. How much water, in milliliters, evaporated from the pan over the three days? Record and bubble in your answer JupiterImages 14 You make a glass of lemonade and add some ice cubes to it so that the glass is completely full. The glass gets left outside in the Sun on a hot day for 20 minutes. What states of matter will change during that time period? F The ice will change from a liquid to a gas. G All of the liquid will change to a gas. H The ice will change from a gas to a liquid, J The ice will change from a solid to a liquid. #1-4, 6, 8, 14 EDUSOFT 04 Science FMA February 10 Page 6
