Description

Bridging research and practice, FOSS Third Edition Modules engage students and teachers in enduring experiences that lead to deeper understanding of science and engineering concepts, as well as the natural and designed world. The Trees and Weather Module for Grade K provides systematic investigations of trees and leaves over the seasons to bring students to a better understanding of trees' place at school and in the community. Students will get to observe day-to-day changes in weather over the year, as well as the impact weather has on living things.

In the FOSS Third Edition The Trees and Weather Complete Kit with 4 hands-on investigation activities, students will: observe and compare trees, using the senses; observe and compare the shapes of leaves and then compare leaf shapes to geometric shapes; identify trees as resources that are used in everyday life; observe weather by using senses and simple tools; communicate observations made about different kinds of trees, leaves, and weather conditions orally and through drawings; and observe and record seasonal changes to living things.
