Science IDOE
  
1.1.4
The learner will be able to use tools, such as rulers and magnifiers, to investigate the world and make observations*. *observation: gaining information through the use of one or more of the senses, such as sight, smell, etc. .

Instruments IDOE
  
Scientific Thinking
The learner will be able to begin to find answers to their questions about the world by using measurements, estimation, and observation as well as working with materials. They communicate with others through numbers, words, and drawings.

Physical Science

The Physical Setting
The learner will be able to investigate, describe, and discuss their natural surroundings. They question why things move and change.
Strand Source
Physical Systems IDOE
  
1.3.1
The learner will be able to recognize and explain that water can be a liquid or a solid and can go back and forth from one form to the other. Investigate by observing that if water is turned into ice and then the ice is allowed to melt, the amount of water is the same as it was before freezing.
Strand Source
Water IDOE
  
1.3.2
The learner will be able to investigate by observing and then describing that water left in an open container disappears, but water in a closed container does not disappear.

Sun: Energy IDOE
  
1.3.4
The learner will be able to investigate by observing and then describe how things move in many different ways, such as straight, zigzag, round-and-round, and back-and-forth.
Strand Source
Motion IDOE
  
1.3.5

Life Science

The Living Environment
The learner will be able to ask questions about a variety of living things and everyday events that can be answered through observations. They become aware of plant and animal interaction. They consider things and processes that plants and animals need to stay alive.

Living Things IDOE
  
1.4.1
The learner will be able to identify when stories give attributes to plants and animals, such as the ability to speak, that they really do not have.
Strand Source
Animals and Plants IDOE
