dissection of a $1\times 5$ rectangle to a square
You can do it with four pieces, and translations only (no rotations).
A standard approach to finding solutions to problems like this is to overlay two tilings. In the following image, the bright yellow rectangles give one 5-piece and two 4-piece solutions requiring only translations (one of which is the same as Robert Israel’s above):
