Part of: [Mississippi: Science](https://ai.page/roadmap/ms-sci.md)

Goal: Mississippi academic standards: Science, Grade 1

## 1. Earth and Space Science · Students will demonstrate an understanding of human dependence on clean and renewable water resources.

- [Building an energy-converting device](https://ai.page/c/building-an-energy-converting-device/index.md): Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another
- [Reducing Human Impact](https://ai.page/c/reducing-human-impact/index.md): Communicate solutions that will reduce the impact of humans on the land, water, air, and other living things in the local environment

## 2. Earth and Space Science · Students will demonstrate an understanding of models (drawings or maps) to describe how water and land are distributed on Earth.

- [Shapes of land and water](https://ai.page/c/shapes-of-land-and-water/index.md): Develop a model to represent the shapes and kinds of land (mountains, valleys, plains) and bodies of water (rivers, lakes, oceans) in an area

## 3. Earth and Space Science · Students will demonstrate an understanding of the patterns of weather by describing, recording, and analyzing weather data to answer questions about daily and seasonal weathe

- [Local weather patterns](https://ai.page/c/local-weather-patterns/index.md): Use and share observations of local weather conditions to describe patterns over time, recording temperature, rainfall, and other conditions

## 4. Physical Science · Students will demonstrate an understanding of sound.

- [Communication with Light & Sound](https://ai.page/c/communication-with-light-and-sound/index.md): Design and build a device that uses light or sound to solve the problem of communicating over a distance
- [Vibrations & Sound](https://ai.page/c/vibrations-and-sound/index.md): Understand that vibrating materials can make sound, and that sound can make materials vibrate

## 5. Physical Science · Students will demonstrate an understanding that light is required to make objects visible.

- [Light & Seeing in the Dark](https://ai.page/c/light-and-seeing-in-the-dark/index.md): Observe that objects in darkness can be seen only when illuminated by a light source

## 6. Life Science · Students will demonstrate an understanding of the ways plants adapt to their environment in order to survive.

- [How animals adapt to environments](https://ai.page/c/how-animals-adapt-to-environments/index.md): Identify how animals and plants are adapted to suit their environment and understand that adaptation may lead to evolution over time

## 7. Life Science · Students will demonstrate an understanding of the interdependence of flowering plants and pollinating insects.

- [Bees and pollination](https://ai.page/c/bees-and-pollination/index.md): Bees and pollination: how flowers and insects depend on each other. Bees visit flowers for nectar, pollen sticks to their bodies and transfers to the next flower. Without pollination many plants cannot make seeds or fruit. Why bees matter for the food we eat.

## 8. Life Science · Students will demonstrate an understanding of what plants need from the environment for growth and repair.

- [What Plants Need to Grow](https://ai.page/c/what-plants-need-to-grow/index.md): Understand that plants need water, light, and a suitable temperature to grow and stay healthy
- [What Plants Need to Thrive](https://ai.page/c/what-plants-need-to-thrive/index.md): Explore and compare the requirements of plants for life and growth: air, light, water, nutrients from soil, and room to grow

## 9. Life Science · Students will demonstrate an understanding of how living things change in form as they go through the general stages of a life cycle.

- [Life Cycles of Organisms](https://ai.page/c/life-cycles-of-organisms/index.md): Develop models to describe that organisms have unique and diverse life cycles but all share the common stages of birth, growth, reproduction, and death
- [Seeds & Plant Growth](https://ai.page/c/seeds-and-plant-growth/index.md): Observe and describe how seeds and bulbs grow into mature plants through stages of germination and growth

## 10. Life Science · Students will demonstrate an understanding of the basic needs and structures of plants.

- [What Living Things Need](https://ai.page/c/what-living-things-need/index.md): Understand what plants and animals (including humans) need to survive: water, food, air, and suitable conditions
- [Parts of a Plant](https://ai.page/c/parts-of-a-plant/index.md): Identify and describe the basic structure of common flowering plants (roots, stem, leaves, flowers) and trees (roots, trunk, branches, leaves)
- [How Plant Parts Work](https://ai.page/c/how-plant-parts-work/index.md): Identify and describe the functions of different parts of flowering plants: roots absorb water and nutrients, stems transport materials, leaves make food, flowers enable reproduction
- [Water Transport in Plants](https://ai.page/c/water-transport-in-plants/index.md): Investigate how water is transported within plants, using observations such as coloured water being drawn up through a stem
