Earth and Space Science

S1E1 Obtain, evaluate, and communicate weather data to identify weather patterns.
- S1E1.a Represent data in tables and/or graphs to identify and describe different types of weather and the characteristics of each type.
  - Describe the weather (1-N.1)
  - Weather patterns (1-N.4)
- S1E1.b Ask questions to identify forms of precipitation such as rain, snow, sleet, and hailstones as either solid (ice) or liquid (water).
  - Types of precipitation (1-N.3)
- S1E1.c Plan and carry out investigations on current weather conditions by observing, measuring with simple weather instruments (thermometer, wind vane, rain gauge), and recording weather data (temperature, precipitation, sky conditions, and weather events) in a periodic journal, on a calendar, and graphically.
  - Describe the weather (1-N.1)
  - Weather patterns (1-N.4)
- S1E1.d Analyze data to identify seasonal patterns of change.
  - Seasonal daylight patterns (1-O.)

Physical Science

S1P1 Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to investigate light and sound.
- S1P1.a Use observations to construct an explanation of how light is required to make objects visible.
  - More light or less light (1-F.1)
- S1P1.b Ask questions to identify and compare sources of light.
- S1P1.c Plan and carry out an investigation of shadows by placing objects at various points from a source of light.
  - Investigate shadows (1-F.2)
- S1P1.d Construct an explanation supported by evidence that vibrating materials can make sound and that sound can make materials vibrate.
- S1P1.e Design a signal that can serve as an emergency alert using light and/or sound to communicate over a distance.
  - How do we use light and sound to communicate? (1-F.4)
S1P2 Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to demonstrate the effects of magnets on other magnets and other objects.
- S1P2.a Construct an explanation of how magnets are used in everyday life.
  - What objects can a magnet pull? (1-G.4)
- S1P2.b Plan and carry out an investigation to demonstrate how magnets attract and repel each other and the effect of magnets on common objects.
  - What objects can a magnet pull? (1-G.4)
  - How do magnets push and pull each other? (1-G.5)

Life Science

S1L1 Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the basic needs of plants and animals.

  - Identify plant parts (1-I.2)
  - Identify what plant parts do (1-I.3)
- S1L1.b Ask questions to compare and contrast the basic needs of plants (air, water, light, and nutrients) and animals (air, water, food, and shelter).
- S1L1.c Design a solution to ensure that a plant or animal has all of its needs met.
  - What do animals need to survive? (1-H.1)
  - What do plants need to survive? (1-I.1)
