STUDENT ACTIVITY – 1st – TXThis is a distance-learning lesson students can complete at home.Students will go on a scavenger hunt in the outdoor space and explain how living things they observe rely on other living and non-living things in the environment to survive.This activity was created by Out Teach (out-teach.org), a nonprofit providing outdoor experiential learning to transform Science education for students in under-served communities. .

Students will use knowledge of ecosystems and living and non-living things to classify objects they find outdoors and create simple food chains.

Part of an interdisciplinary week-long unit on DNA and genetics with activities in science, math, and language arts. This lesson is Part A: Science. Students complete a teacher-made scavenger hunt as an introduction to DNA and genetics, then watch a short video and use their science books to learn more about the topic. Students work in pairs to investigate DNA, genetics, and cloning through internet research and compile their information in the form of their own internet scavenger hunt.

The purpose of this lesson is to show learners how to keep a nature journal. How to reflect, respond, and question the observations they see in the world.

In this activity about sleep rhythms (on page 25 of the PDF), learners will investigate how changing the time they go to bed impacts their own sleep patterns. For one night, learners will go to bed one hour earlier than usual. They will observe and record any impacts that this change has on their abilities to fall asleep, and on their usual wake times the next morning. This lesson guide includes background information, setup and management tips, extensions and a handout.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can use it to learn about the life cycle of plabts. The five activities included in this lesson plan provide students with evidence that all living things grow and change as they progress through their life cycle. All of the activities detailed in this lesson plan can be done with students who are visually impaired, if teachers adapt them using Resources for Teaching and Adapting Lessons for Students with Visual Impairments. Tactile models and braille materials will be key and all of the activities will require more time for repeated tactical exploration and expression.

Students will use their knowledge of life cycles to find evidence of various plant life cycles and compare to that of frogs, beetles, butterflies.

CK-12 Life Science Honors For Middle School covers seven units: Understanding Living Things; Cells: The Building Blocks of Life; Genetics and Evolution; Prokaryotes, Protists, Fungi, and Plants; The Animal Kingdom; The Human Body; and Ecology.

In this activity on page 1 of the PDF, learners compare the relative sizes of biological objects (like DNA and bacteria) that can't be seen by the naked eye. Learners will be surprised to discover the range of sizes in the microscopic world. This activity can be followed up with a second activity, "What's in a microbe?", located on page 3 in the same resource.

STUDENT ACTIVITY – K – GAThis is a distance-learning lesson students can complete at home.Students will recognize the difference between living and non-living things. They will explore outdoors and sort the things they observe into living and non-living.This activity was created by Out Teach (out-teach.org), a nonprofit providing outdoor experiential learning that transforms Science education for students in under-served communities.

In this lesson the students will determine that for an object to be a living thing it must grow and reproduce and it must have its basic needs met.
