First Grade - Science Link to this section

Pick one to two activities to do each week

  • Join an astronaut for a science read-aloud (Spanish)
  • Build a ramp and test things to see if they roll. See if you can make something roll from one piece of furniture to another on a ramp.
  • Make observations. Add food coloring to a glass of cold water and to room temperature water. Does the water act the same? Put the end of a paper towel in one glass, and the other end in an empty glass. What happens?
  • Candy excuse: Is red really cherry? Plug your nose and close your eyes. Put a Lifesaver (or other flavored candy) in your mouth. Guess the flavor. Make notes on the flavor until it dissolves. Try another time with a different color. Link  Spanish
