FOSS Third Edition Insects and Plants Complete Kit, Grades 1 to 2, with 32 Seats Digital Access
Description
Bridging research and practice, FOSS Third Edition Modules engage students and teachers in enduring experiences that lead to deeper understanding of science and engineering concepts, as well as the natural and designed world. The Insects and Plants Module for Grades 1 to 2 provides experiences with the life sequences of a number of insects so that students learn that organisms reproduce offspring of their own kind. At the same time, students will get to grow a plant from seeds and observe brassica go through its life cycle to produce new seeds.
In the FOSS Third Edition Insects and Plants Complete Kit with 5 hands-on investigation activities, students will: develop a curiosity and interest in insects and flowering plants and an appreciation for them as living things; provide for the needs of insects and plants and observe them over time; observe the similarities and differences of the life sequences that different types of insects exhibit (simple and complete metamorphosis); compare the life cycles of different kinds of animals and learn that organisms reproduce offspring of their own kind; observe variations within a group of insects; organize and communicate observations through drawing and writing and use bar graphs to record data; use magnifiers to observe and draw organisms; and write or draw a sequence of steps for an event.
