Kindergarteners build vocabulary by learning about categorization. They discuss the attributes of living and non-living things. As a class, they view and sort pictures into each category. They discuss the word category and what it means.

Alive or not? After viewing this presentation, life science learners will know how to answer this question. They are introduced to the seven processes of living systems and the classification hierarchy. Because it only covers...

Second graders classify and analyze living things by structure and function and make predictions based on observations rather than random guesses. They make predictions about where dinosaurs lived and correctly place their databases onto...

Second graders study the changes in organisms over time. In this Life Science lesson, 2nd graders explore how living things react to changes in the environment. Students identify the basic needs of living things.

Students explore the garden environment. In this garden environment lesson, students investigate the needs and parts of a plant. Students discover the differences between fruits and vegetables while creating their own garden.

First graders identify the characteristics of living and non living things. In this living and non living things lesson plan, 1st graders look through bags and categorize items that they see.

Young scholars observe how nail polish on a fingernail and petals on a flower grow over time. In this change and grow lesson plan, students observe, discuss, and draw how living things change and grow.

In this living things graphic organizer worksheet, students decide whether the 10 things listed are living or not as they consider the 7 attributes included on the chart.

In this biology worksheet, students learn about cells and their various parts. They first read a page and a half of facts about cells and then answer the 10 questions in the packet. The answers are on the last page.

In this fill in the blank worksheet, students respond to 20 short answer questions by identifying foods that contain large amounts of sugar, carbohydrate, and fruit acids and explaining their effects on the body.

Students are able to define habitat. They are able to identify the four things that living things need to survive. Students are able to describe how living things are adapted to their habitats.

Students visit an outdoors area and mark out a square on the ground that they examine, looking for living and non-living things. They make a model or drawing of the findings from the actual square.

First graders explore living things and their habitats. They create an original It's Alive! book to demonstrate what they have learned.

First graders distinguish between living and nonliving objects, and compare living organisms and nonliving objects.

Second graders investigate the life cycle using brine shrimp as an example. They conduct observations by watching the shrimp hatch out of cysts. Students design simple experiment to structure an observation. The experiment is approved...
