    This link has lesson plans and activities that would useful in learning about food chains. It also has standards, objectives, and rubrics for the teacher to use. I like this link because it will be useful to guide off of for lesson plans, objectives, and activities. You can use the lesson plans and activities, or you can change them for your liking.

Sesame Street - Is it alive? - YouTube - 2 views

  •  
    This video is very engaging and very fun. 1st graders would love the beat, and the rhyming of the words. I think that it would be one of those songs that would be easy to memorize, and something they could refer back to if they want to know if something is alive or not. It also keeps repeating the three main characteristics of living things- eat, breathe, and grow. I could use this either as an introduction since it is so engaging or as a review to end the session.

Living and Nonliving Lesson Plan - 0 views

  •  
    This website was uploaded by BPS Elementary Science Exemplars Project. It is a great lesson plan on how to teach first graders to differentiate between living and nonliving things. This would be a great way for me to introduce the lesson plan to my class. I really like how it still has a lot of pictures to match with the words, in case some readers are not as advanced as others. This lesson plan is very kid friendly, and would be engaging for them, because I could also use several objects in the classroom/around the school to ask if it is living or non-living. After the students gave me their answer, I would then go into characteristics of each living or non-living thing.

All About Mammals - 1 views

  •  
    This website is great because it is set up in a simple format with some pictures, and neat facts about mammals. It would be fairly easy for a 1st grader to navigate. It also relates to the standard 12.B.1a- Describe and compare characteristics of living things in relationship to their environments. It relates because it tells how mammals live in a variety of places, and gives examples of where they live (i.e. camels live in hot areas, with picture of camel).

Parts of Plants video - 1 views

  •  
    This is a video from teacher tube about the parts of plants and what they need. I would show this video on the day that the students would make their chart craft of the parts of plants. I feel like this would flow with the craft project perfectly.

Plant Adaptation-BrainPOP Jr. - 0 views

  •  
    This is a video/interactive game on BrainPOP Jr. about plant adaptions. It gives an overview of what a plant needs to survive and show different kinds of plants adapt to areas that don't have the necessary elements to live. The school needs a subscription to use this website. Given that the school would have it, I would use this in my lesson. This is different than just the regular lesson on the life cycle; it gives the students a different view of plants that they may have never seen before.

How Plants Grow booklet - 2 views

  •  
    This website gives the teacher a free printable booklet for students. In the activity, the students have to put in order (sequence) the life cycle of plants. This is exactly what the lesson as a whole is about so I feel that this would be perfect for them to make just as an enforcer. If the student would ever forget or be confused, they could look at their booklet as a refresher.

Plant Journal - 0 views

  •  
    This website has a printable journal for the student's to record their observations of a plant. For my lesson plan, I am going to have the students plant seeds and record their growth. This journal is more for first grade than just a plain piece of paper to write on. It additionally has a box in the daily journal pages to draw what the plant looks like. It is perfect for the students to see the changes in the plant day by day as well.

Missouri Botanical Garden Field Trip - 1 views

  •  
    This would be a perfect field trip to incorporate with my lesson abou plants. In the Children's Garden, the students would get a tour of the garden, learn about germination through three different stations and get to experience plants in real life. This would be so fun!

Parts of Plants Craft - 0 views

  •  
    This is a website from a first grade teacher's blog. I am using the pictures for a craft idea that I would use for my lesson plan. To understand the life cycle of a plant, the students would need to have a visual of all the parts of the plant. This is also great becuase they would label all of the parts and the elements of what a plant needs to survive. It is so cute, I love it!

Nasa-Nasa Kid's Club - 2 views

  •  
    This website can be used for grades K-12, it can also be used for teachers and parents too. There are fun games that can be played and exploration tools to use. This website is very easy to use and navigate through also.

    Taylor, add your description here.

    I think this website is suitable for our Math/Science night because it caters to the lower elementary grades. This site has Buzz Lightyear games, galaxy games and interactive activities for the kids to learn information about space. It ties into astronomy great!

St. Louis Zoo Winter Program - 1 views

  •  
    The Delta Dental Winter Zoo program focuses on winter and the animals that live in winter specific habitats. For example, the event focuses on penguins for parts of the event. This field trip would allow the students to see animals of all different kinds. We would easily be able to focus on the winter aspect of the seasons, but we would also be able to tie in the other seasons. We would be able to discuss the other animals at the zoo and what season their normal habitat would be. We could then talk about why certain animals live in certain seasons.

Winter - 0 views

    This site would be used as a project resource. The class would be split up into groups or partners and they would present on one specific season. This site would allow for them to easily get information on one season. This site offered facts about winter, but also the history of winter and it's characteristics.

    This site had facts specific to spring. I would also use this site as a project resource. The students could be separated into groups and present on a specific season and this site would allow for the students to easily get information on one specific season.
