Kindergarten Science Β· World 9: Babies and Parents Β· Level 59
Ask and Observe
Ask questions about babies and parents, and answer them by looking.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. About 15 minutes.
What children learn in Level 59
- Scientists ask questions. Then they look closely to find the answers. Looking closely is called observing.
- Here is a mother sheep with its lambs. Ask a question: is the lamb the same color as its mother? Look. One lamb is black, and one is white!
- We can answer some questions by looking: how many babies, how big, what color, how many legs.
- We can't answer every question by looking. We can't see a puppy's name, or what it's thinking!
- Try it with a grown-up! Watch a pet or a bird. Ask a question, and look closely to answer it.
Georgia Standards of Excellence in Science:
- SKL2.c β Ask questions and make observations to identify the similarities and differences of offspring to their parents and to other members of the same species.
