I can read, define and spell words that I am working with daily in Fundations. I can use the spelling pattern I am working on in my daily writing. I can spell high frequency words in my writing.

I can organize to find how many and compare. I can organize and represent data to compare two categories. I can sort to represent and compare data with three categories. I can find the total number of data points and compare categories in a picture graph.

I can observe firsthand the structures of plants and discover ways to propagate new plants from mature plants (from seeds, bulbs, roots, and stem cuttings). I can observe and describe changes that occur as plants grow, and compare classroom plants to those in the schoolyard. I can design terrariums (habitat systems) and provide for the needs of both plants and animals living together in the classroom. I can explore variation in the same kind of organism, including variation between young and adults. I can learn about the behaviors of parents to help their young (offspring) survive. I can explore structure and function relationships as I sort different kinds of animal and plant structures.
