Grade 1 Science Weeks 29–30: Student Textbook
Five lessons each week. Read, ask questions, observe safely, record evidence, and explain what you learned. Ask an adult before any experiment.
Week 29: Patterns and seasons
Read: Seasons bring recurring changes in temperature and daylight. Plants and animals may respond to seasonal changes. Not every place has the same weather.
Day 141: Read and ask
Task: Answer the question using the passage: Does every location have identical weather?
Day 142: Model and label
Task: Draw and label two facts from the reading. Write a sentence explaining each.
Day 143: Predict
Task: Predict what you might observe if you explore this topic. Explain your prediction.
Day 144: Observe
Task: Safe observation or model: Compare local observations from two seasons. Record what actually happened.
Day 145: Explain
Task: Without copying the reading, answer: Does every location have identical weather? Explain one piece of evidence.
Week 30: Soil and water
Read: Soil contains small rock particles and organic material. Water can move soil from one place to another. Plant roots can help hold soil in place.
Day 146: Read and ask
Task: Answer the question using the passage: How can roots affect soil?
Day 147: Model and label
Task: Draw and label two facts from the reading. Write a sentence explaining each.
Day 148: Predict
Task: Predict what you might observe if you explore this topic. Explain your prediction.
Day 149: Observe
Task: Safe observation or model: Observe a small soil sample in a sealed clear container with an adult. Record what actually happened.
Day 150: Explain
Task: Without copying the reading, answer: How can roots affect soil? Explain one piece of evidence.
