This Activity aligns with Next Generation Science Standards:

• SC.4.P.11.2 Identify common materials that conduct heat well or poorly.

They can complete the activities on paper or on a computer using Google Classroom. This resource is divided into the following sections, and within each section are ready-to-print resources and engaging activities:

Introduction to Thermal Conductors and Insulators

It has a brief history of the subject, with an overview of all the most important points. It also includes diagrams and illustrations to help illustrate what they're learning and make it more fun. 

Engaging Activities

✍ Cut and sort the pictures if they are thermal conductors or thermal insulators

✍Identify if an object is a good conductor or a bad conductor

✍ Identify if an object is a thermal conductor or a thermal insulator

✍ Locate and record items that you think might be thermal conductors and thermal insulators

✍ Draw and label an example of thermal conductors and thermal insulators

✍ Multiple choice questions

✍ Identify if the given picture is a conductor or an insulator

✍ Stop heat from escaping activity
