MS.E.1.GRADE ONE: Earth and Space Science
GRADE ONE: Earth and Space Science
Earth’s Systems and Cycles
E.1.9A. Students will demonstrate an understanding of the patterns of weather by describing, recording, and analyzing weather data to answer questions about daily and seasonal weather patterns.
E.1.9A.1. Analyze and interpret data from observations and measurements to describe local weather conditions (including temperature, wind, and forms of precipitation).
L.1.3A. Students will demonstrate an understanding of what plants need from the environment for growth and repair.
L.1.3A.1. Conduct structured investigations to make and test predictions about what plants need to live, grow, and repair including water, nutrients, sunlight, and space. Develop explanations, compare results, and report findings.
L.1.1. Students will demonstrate an understanding of the basic needs and structures of plants.
L.1.1.1. Construct explanations using first-hand observations or other media to describe the structures of different plants (i.e., root, stem, leaves, flowers, and fruit). Report findings using drawings, writing, or models.

L.1.1.2. Obtain information from informational text and other media to describe the function of each plant part (roots absorb water and anchor the plant, leaves make food, the stem transports water and food, petals attract pollinators, flowers produce seeds, and s

Adaptations and Diversity
L.1.4. Students will demonstrate an understanding of the ways plants adapt to their environment in order to survive.
L.1.4.2. Describe how the different characteristics of plants help them to survive in distinct environments (e.g., rain forest, desert, grasslands, forests).
L.1.2. Students will demonstrate an understanding of how living things change in form as they go through the general stages of a life cycle.
L.1.2.1. Investigate, using observations and measurements (non-standard units), flowering plants (pumpkins, peas, marigolds, or sunflowers) as they change during the life cycle (i.e., germination, growth, reproduction, and seed dispersal). Use drawings, writing, o
L.1.2.2. Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information through labeled drawings, the life cycle (egg, larva, pupa, adult) of pollinating insects (e.g., bees, butterflies).
P.1.6B. Students will demonstrate an understanding of sound.
P.1.6B.1. Conduct an investigation to provide evidence that vibrations create sound (e.g., pluck a guitar string) and that sound can create vibrations (e.g., feeling sound through a speaker).
