    3. c.

      Plan and carry out investigations on current weather conditions by observing, measuring with simple weather instruments (thermometer, wind vane, rain gauge), and recording weather data (temperature, precipitation, sky conditions, and weather events) in a periodic journal, on a calendar, and graphically.S1E1.c

    2. b.

      Ask questions to compare and contrast the basic needs of plants (air, water, light, and nutrients) and animals (air, water, food, and shelter).S1L1.b

    3. c.

      Design a solution to ensure that a plant or animal has all of its needs met.S1L1.c
