Alignment to CORE and NGSS Standards
| Grade | Number | Standard |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NGSS: 1-LS1.A: | All organisms have external parts. Different animals use their body parts in different ways to see, hear, grasp objects, protect themselves, move from place to place, and seek, find, and take in food, water and air. Plants also have different parts (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits) that help them survive and grow. (1-LS1-1) |
| 1 | NGSS: 1-LS1.D: | Animals have body parts that capture and convey different kinds of information needed for growth and survival. Animals respond to these inputs with behaviors that help them survive. Plants also respond to some external inputs. (senses) (1-LS1-1) |
