Curriculum is based on state and national content standards and what a student might learn while attending school in the United States.
 
Curriculum - Kindergarten
Observe and describe similarities and differences of plants
Observe and describe similarities and differences of animals
Stories sometimes give plants and animals unrealistic attributes
Identify major structures of common plants
Identify major structures of common animals
 
Curriculum - Grade 1
Different plants inhabit different kinds of environments
Different animals inhabit different kinds of environments
Plants need water and light
Animals need water and food
Animals eat plants or other animals for food
Animals use plants or even other animals for shelter and nesting
Infer what animals eat from the shapes of their teeth
Roots are associated with the intake of water and soil nutrients
Green leaves are associated with making food from sunlight
 
Curriculum - Grade 2
Organisms reproduce offspring of their own kind
Sequential stages of life cycles are different for different animals
Characteristics of an organism are inherited from the parents
There is variation among individuals within a population
Gravity, touch, or environment can affect development of plants
Flowers and fruits are associated with reproduction in plants
 
Curriculum - Grade 3
Plants have structures that serve different functions
Animals have structures that serve different functions
Diverse life forms exist in different environments
Living things cause changes in the environment
When the environment changes some plants change
When the environment changes some animals change
Some organisms that lived on Earth have completely disappeared
 
Curriculum - Grade 4
Plants are the primary source of matter and energy
Producers and consumers are related in food chains
Decomposers recycle matter from dead plants and animals
Ecosystems can be characterized by living, nonliving components
In any particular environment some kinds of plants survive
In any particular environment some kinds of animals survive
Many plants depend on animals for pollination and seed dispersal
Many animals depend on plants for food and shelter
Most microorganisms do not cause disease, many are beneficial
 
Curriculum - Grade 5
Multicellular organisms have structures to transport materials
Blood circulates through the body
Sequential steps in the function of the digestive system
Role of the kidney in removing cellular waste from blood
Sugar, water, and minerals are transported in a vascular plant
Plants use carbon dioxide and energy from sunlight
Plant and animal cells break down sugar to obtain energy
 
Curriculum - Grade 6
Sunlight is transferred into energy through photosynthesis
Matter is transferred over time
Populations of organisms can be categorized
Different organisms play similar ecological roles in similar biomes
An ecosystem depends on the resources available
 
Curriculum - Grade 7
Compare joints in the body with structures used in machines
Levers confer mechanical advantage
Flow of blood in the circulatory system
Cells function similarly in all living organisms
Characteristics that distinguish plant cells from animal cells
The nucleus is the repository for genetic information in cells
Mitochondria liberate energy, chloroplasts capture sunlight energy
Cells divide to increase their numbers through mitosis
As multicellular organisms develop their cells differentiate
Differences between sexual and asexual organisms
Sexual reproduction produces offspring that inherit genes
An inherited trait can be determined by one or more genes
Plant and animal cells contain many thousands of different genes
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the genetic material of organisms
Genetic variation and environmental factors cause evolution
Reasoning used by Charles Darwin in reaching his conclusion
Evidence provides the basis for the theory of evolution
Construct a simple branching diagram to classify living groups
Extinction of a species occurs when the environment changes
Plants and animals have levels of organization
Systems function because of organs, tissues, and cells
Bones and muscles work together to provide a framework
Reproductive organs of the human female and male
Function of the umbilicus and placenta during pregnancy
Structures and processes of flowering plants
Relate the structures of the eye and ear to their functions
 
Curriculum - Grade 8
Carbon has a central role in the chemistry of living organisms
Living organisms are made of molecules
Living organisms have many different kinds of molecules
