Year 5 (Grade 10) Science Summative Assessment - Key Concept: Change

Instructions/Clarification/Rubric

Subject: Science Statement of Inquiry: The consequence of electric and

magnetic forces makes it possible to produce the
Unit Name: Electricity & It’s magnetic effects electrical energy which changes the living standards of
the global population.

Task Name: Summative Assessment What are the important elements that you (teacher) will
th
Due Date:15 be assessing with this task?
Feb 2023 Task Description: Tasks will be focusing upon the concepts of electricity
(resistance & resistivity) and will be assessing Criteria B and C. Two criteria (B and C) will be assessed through this
Summative Assessment.
Platform: Assessprep
Date and Block: Day-1 Block 2 15th Feb Where should students access the information,
Topics: resources, templates and other materials for this task?

• Electric charge Students will refer the notes given in the classroom,
• Methods of charging - friction, conduction and induction resources added on the managebac and the course book
• Applications of static electricity - painting of cars, printing machines, smoke for MYP year 4 and 5.
particle precipitator
• Electric field
• Simple circuits and circuit symbols
• Use and explain the terms “current” (I), “potential difference” (V) and
“resistance” (R).
• Ohm’s law (Understand the difference between ohmic and non- ohmic
resistors and draw a graph of each)
• Factors affecting resistance
• Series and parallel circuits:

o - Use the equation V = IR to calculate the current through a

resistor on application of a known value of potential difference.
o - Calculate the combined resistance of different combinations of
resistors using the two equations
RT = R1 + R2, for resistors in 1/RT = 1/R1 + 1/R2, for resistors in parallel.
• Electrical safety and hazards
 • Household electricity
• Uses of electricity in the wider community
• Creative uses for electricity
• Magnetic materials (Induced magnetism, properties of a magnet)
• Making a magnet
• Magnetic field
• Earth as a magnet
• Magnetic effect of a current
• Electromagnets – construction, working and application (electric bell, relay
switch, MCBs)
• Magnetic force on a current (Flemings’ left-hand rule, turning effect of coil)
• DC Motor (The motor effect, the action of a commutator, and the use of
Fleming's left-hand rule to predict the direction a motor will spin or the
direction of the force on a single wire in a magnetic field)
• Electromagnetic induction (Lens law, Flemings’ right-hand rule)
• AC Generator (The action of a dynamo and alternator, and the difference
between a split-ring and slit-ring commutator. Understand the difference
between alternating and direct current and draw graphs of each type of
current.)
• How power stations operate and how electricity gets transferred from one
region to another using high- voltage power lines
• The operation of an AC transformer, why this type of transformer is
significant and solving problems using:
o - Vp/Vs = Np/Ns to solve problems on transformers
o - P = IV to explain the relative power loss in transmission lines
