Grade | Number | Standard |
---|---|---|
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.1.1a(iv) | Natural cycles and patterns include weather changing from day to day and through the seasons |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.3.1a | Each animal has different structures that serve different functions in growth, survival, and reproduction. |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.3.1a (i) | wings, legs, or fins enable some animals to seek shelter and escape predators |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.3.1a (iii) | eyes, nose, ears, tongue, and skin of some animals enable the animals to sense their surroundings |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.3.1a (vi) | the characteristics of some animals change as seasonal conditions change (e.g., fur grows and is shed to help regulate body heat; body fat is a form of stored energy and it changes as the seasons change) |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.3.1c | In order to survive in their environment, plants and animals must be adapted to that environment. |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.3.1c (iii) | animal adaptations include coloration for warning or attraction, camouflage, defense mechanisms, movement, hibernation, and migration |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.5.1b | An organismês external physical features can enable it to carry out life functions in its particular environment. |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.5.2b | Animals respond to change in their environment, (e.g., perspiration, heart rate, breathing rate, eye blinking, shivering, and salivating). |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.5.2e | physical animal characteristics by changing environmental conditions: fat storage in winter, coat thickness in winter, camouflage, shedding of fur. |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.5.2f | Some animal behaviors are influenced by environmental conditions:nest building, hibernating, hunting, migrating, and communicating. |
K,1,2,3,4 | K-4.6.1e | An organismês pattern of behavior is related to the nature of that organismês environment, including the kinds and numbers of other organisms present, the availability of food and other resources, and the physical characteristics of the environment. |
