Grade 1 Science South Carolina Standards

Use observations of the sun, moon, and stars to describe patterns that can be predicted.

Make observations at different times of year to relate the amount of daylight to the time of year.

Use materials to design a solution to a human problem by mimicking how plants and/or animals use their external parts to help them survive, grow, and meet their needs.

Obtain information from multiple sources to determine patterns in parent and offspring behavior that help offspring survive.

Make observations to support an evidence-based claim that most young are like, but not exactly like, their parents.

Plan and conduct investigations to provide evidence that vibrating materials can make sound and that sound can make materials vibrate.

Make observations to support an evidence-based claim that objects in darkness can be seen only when illuminated by light sources.

Plan and conduct an investigation to determine the effect of placing objects made with different materials in the path of a beam of light.

Use tools and materials to design and build a device that uses light or sound to communicate over a distance.
