SCIENCE.1.13.B — Vertical Alignment
Vertical alignment shows student expectations in the same subject area at different grade levels that are related to or build upon one another.
identify and record the changes from seed, seedling, plant, flower, and fruit in a simple plant life cycle; and
record observations of and describe basic life cycles of animals, including a bird, a mammal, and a fish; and
explain and demonstrate how some plants depend on other living things, wind, or water for pollination and to move their seeds around.
investigate and describe some of the unique life cycles of animals where young animals do not resemble their parents, including butterflies and frogs.
explore, illustrate, and compare life cycles in organisms such as beetles, crickets, radishes, or lima beans.
SCIENCE.1.13.B — Breakout of skills
Breakouts are the component parts that make up a student expectation. A breakout shows a distinct concept a student should know or a distinct skill that a student should be able to demonstrate.
Recurring themes and concepts — Connections to the content
Patterns are regular sequences that can be found throughout nature.
Life cycles of organisms are repeating patterns of stages.
