GAMES, WORKSHEETS, ACTIVITY IDEAS, WEBSITES, ARTICLES, GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS, STUDENT EXAMPLES, EXIT SLIPS & BULLETIN BORAD IDEA! Resources are based around these standards: 3-LS1 From Molecules to Organisms: Structures and Processes 3-LS1-1. Develop models to describe that organisms have unique and diverse life cycles but all have in common birth, growth, reproduction, and death. 3-LS3 Heredity: Inheritance and Variation of Traits 3-LS3-1. Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence that plants and animals have traits inherited from parents and that variation of these traits exists in a group of similar organisms. 3-LS3-2. Use evidence to support the explanation that traits can be influenced by the environment. 3-LS2 Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics 3-LS2-1. Construct an argument that some animals form groups that help members survive. 3-LS4 Biological Evolution: Unity and Diversity 3-LS4-1. Analyze and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of the organisms and the environments in which they lived long ago. 3-LS4-2. Use evidence to construct an explanation for how the variations in characteristics among individuals of the same species may provide advantages in surviving, finding mates, and reproducing. 3-LS4-3. Construct an argument with evidence that in a particular habitat some organisms can survive well, some survive less well, and some cannot survive at all. 3-LS4-4. Make a claim about the merit of a solution to a problem caused when the environment changes and the types of plants and animals that live there may change.* WHAT DO YOU GET!?!? -Student examples -I can posters for each NGSS -RESOURCE WEBSITES FOR TEACHERS & STUDENTS (You might have to copy and paste the link into the search engine) -Activity Ideas Resources... -Label the parts of plant WS (B&W/COLOR) -Describe the functions of a plant WS- Answer key -Parts of a Plant Assessment -Life Cycle Vocabulary WS -Life Cycle Activity- Video Observation -Video Observation WS -Frog Life Cycle WS (B&W/COLOR) -Butterfly Life Cycle WS (B&W/COLOR) - Answer Key -I Can...

Science projects for 3rd graders can be colorful, fun, and educational. It’s the perfect time for students to get familiar with the scientific method and learn basic scientific concepts from various fields of science. Hands-on science activities allow them to gain valuable knowledge of the field and foster an early love for science that they can build on for the rest of their lives. Here are 68 epic science experiments for any 3rd-grade class.
Here is an introductory lesson to what Science is. Many young students may not have a good grasp of just what science is so this worksheet give them the idea that there are really 3 areas of Science: Life, Earth and Physical Science. They are given the words that will be used in sentences on the next page. This worksheet would work for 2nd and 3rd graders who can read well. When this worksheet is done, you could have them cut and paste pictures from magazines into the 3 areas described as a collage or have a discussion on what areas of science different objects in the room would go into. Even though planets technically go with physical science, I put them in with the earth science group as that would make more sense to them at this point. I did not give them the names Life Science, Earth Science and Physical Science but you could if you want to.

Please note: This product will be sold at a discount until all updates to align with the new science TEKS (implementation 2024-2025) have been completed. Buyers will have access to the updated file when it becomes available. If you teach 3rd grade science, this TEKS-aligned year long bundle is going to be a life-saver! My resources are aligned with the 2023-2024 Texas science standards, however, as you can see below, the concepts covered are the same concepts as in most 3rd grade science standards throughout the U.S. Each unit comes with 3 or more passages with graphic organizers, journal inserts, and lab activities for each topic. The units also include a comprehension review task card game and 12 vocabulary/definition cards both with instructions for two ways to use them. There are two unit quizzes (which will make collecting science grades a breeze), and 9 extension activities for your early finishers, higher learners, and/or GT thinkers. All of my units come with digital links for these activities as well in case you are a homeschool or remote teacher, or just want to promote technological literacy in the classroom.
