    Description

    Bring science to life with this 1st grade science bundle. There are 3 engaging units to teach the Next Generation Science Standards for first grade! Included are NGSS science units on living things, the earth, moon and sun, and light and sound for 1st grade. 

    You will love these 1st grade science units because they are very hands-on and include scripted teacher lesson plans, student investigations, vocabulary, digital books, and more! Plus, all units are aligned to NGSS science standards. 

    Science is more than textbooks and worksheets, so these 1st grade science units provide hands-on investigations for students to interact with the learning content! It's great for anyone looking to make science more fun and exciting for their students without compromising on the content.

    Save time with this 1st grade science unit bundle!

    All of the planning is done and all lessons are engaging and ready to go and meet grade level standards. The lessons are scripted and can even be left with a substitute. All prep and materials are outlined in detail in the ‘Teacher Guide’ to save teachers time in prepping for the activities in each unit. 

    Each 1st Grade Science Unit includes:

    • Scripted Lesson Plans
    • Teacher Guide
    • Hands on experiments and investigations with student response sheets 
    • Vocabulary Cards with real images
    • Projectable e-Books with real images 
    • Lesson extensions and connections to CCS Standards

    The teacher planning guide reviews lessons day by day and highlights what materials are needed to prep ahead of each lesson. It also gives helpful tips and suggestions for teachers to note when planning and organizing each lesson in the unit. 

    Next Generation Science Standards Addressed: 

    ✅  Sound: 1-PS4-1, 1-PS4-4, K-2-ETS1-1

    ✅  Light: 1-PS4-2, 1-PS4-3, 1-PS4-4, K-2-ETS1-1

    ✅  Sun Moon Stars: 1-ESS1-1, 1-ESS1-2

    ✅  Living Organisms: 1-LS1-1, 1-LS1-2, 1-LS3-1, K-2-ETS1-2

    Many  teachers are required to teach NGSS science but don't always have the needed materials or time to plan units around them or to add the additional activities that help get students excited about the learning content! Luckily, this light and sound 1st grade unit, living things unit, and earth, moon, and sun unit are the perfect additions to your science lessons. 

    Using these 1st grade science units is easy. The lessons build upon depth of content knowledge in a sequence that makes sense. Students are able to complete the next day's lesson using the knowledge they have gained the day before. Also, continuous review of NGSS science content helps students master the material that has been built into the lessons.

    Standards

    to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
    NGSSK-2-ETS1-2
    Develop a simple sketch, drawing, or physical model to illustrate how the shape of an object helps it function as needed to solve a given problem.
    NGSS1-ESS1-1
    Use observations of the sun, moon, and stars to describe patterns that can be predicted. Examples of patterns could include that the sun and moon appear to rise in one part of the sky, move across the sky, and set; and stars other than our sun are visible at night but not during the day. Assessment of star patterns is limited to stars being seen at night and not during the day.
    NGSSK-2-ETS1-3
    Analyze data from tests of two objects designed to solve the same problem to compare the strengths and weaknesses of how each performs.
    NGSS1-LS1-1
    Use materials to design a solution to a human problem by mimicking how plants and/or animals use their external parts to help them survive, grow, and meet their needs. Examples of human problems that can be solved by mimicking plant or animal solutions could include designing clothing or equipment to protect bicyclists by mimicking turtle shells, acorn shells, and animal scales; stabilizing structures by mimicking animal tails and roots on plants; keeping out intruders by mimicking thorns on branches and animal quills; and, detecting intruders by mimicking eyes and ears.
    NGSSK-2-ETS1-1
    Ask questions, make observations, and gather information about a situation people want to change to define a simple problem that can be solved through the development of a new or improved object or tool.
