Science 1
DS1.2
Inquire into the ways in which plants, animals, and humans adapt to daily and seasonal changes by changing their appearance, behaviour, and/or location.
CP, DM, SI
Indicators for this outcome
| (a) |
Pose questions about plant, animal, and human adaptation to daily and seasonal changes (e.g., Where do animals go during the night or the day? Why do some trees have no leaves in winter? Why do we wear jackets in winter?). |
| (b) |
Make predictions about plant, animal, and human adaptations to daily and seasonal changes based on observed patterns (e.g., some animals will migrate at particular times of the year, humans will wear mitts and scarves in winter, and some birds will disappear in winter). |
| (c) |
Examine daily changes in the characteristics, behaviours, and location of plants, animals, and humans (e.g., some animals sleep at night, students go to school during the day, and some plants close their leaves at night). |
| (d) |
Examine seasonal changes in the characteristics, behaviours, and location of plants, animals, and humans (e.g., plants sprout in the spring, some trees lose their leaves in the fall, some rabbits change colour in the winter, some animals hibernate during the winter, and humans play different sports in the winter than in the summer). |
| (e) |
Explore ways in which plant, animal, and human adaptations to daily and seasonal changes are represented through fiction and non-fiction writing and the arts (dance, drama, music, and visual art). |
| (f) |
Construct representations of plant, animal, and human adaptations to daily and seasonal changes (e.g., humans wear different clothes, some plants lose their leaves in winter, some animals change colour, and some birds migrate). |
| (g) |
Describe ways in which humans prepare to adapt to daily and seasonal changes (e.g., characteristics of clothing worn in different seasons, movement patterns of First Nations to follow animal migration, and features of buildings that keep people warm and dry). |
| (h) |
Pose new questions based on what was learned about plant, animal, and human adaptations to daily and seasonal changes. |
| (i) |
Communicate questions, ideas, and intentions with classmates while conducting their explorations into daily and seasonal adaptations (e.g., share ideas about how animals survive at different times of the year). |

National Geographic Science K Series
This series of modular kits allows students to build skills to ensure a complete understanding of the nature of science. The process skills and the nature of science work together to help students think and act like scientists. In kindergarten, students will develop their process skill of observation. Through the nature of science, kindergarten students will learn that science knowledge is based on evidence and that science knowledge can change based upon new evidence.
Numerous opportunities are provided for students to engage in hands-on explorations that ensure a thorough understanding of key science concepts. Each unit opens with a Big Question to guide learning. Throughout the unit, there are four levels of inquiry. The Explore Activity allows students to build background knowledge. Teachers direct instruction in Directed Inquiry. In Guided Inquiry, students become independent learners with guidance from the teacher. Students choose their own questions, create and carry out plans, collect and record data and share data in Open Inquiry.
Additional materials for students and teachers are available online at www.myngconnect.com/login/chooseMainUI.spr
