Scientific investigation and reasoning. The student
conducts classroom and outdoor investigations following home and school safety
procedures and uses environmentally appropriate and responsible practices. The
student is expected to:
(1) Organisms and environments. The student knows that
organisms resemble their parents and have structures and processes that help
them survive within their environments. The student is expected to:
(2) investigate how the external characteristics of an
animal are related to where it lives, how it moves, and what it eats;
(A) identify and compare the parts of plants;
(B) compare ways that young animals resemble their
parents; and
(C) observe and record life cycles of animals such as a
chicken, frog, or fish.
(D) identify, discuss, and demonstrate safe and healthy
practices as outlined in Texas Education agency-approved safety standards
during classroom and outdoor investigations, including wearing safety goggles
or chemical splash goggles, as appropriate, washing hands, and using materials
appropriately; and
(E) identify and learn how to use natural resources and
materials, including conservation and reuse or recycling of paper, plastic, and
metals.
