Science

• The student has learned about the life cycle of plants, including the stages of seed, germination, growth, flowering, and seed production.
• They have explored the properties of different materials and identified materials that are transparent, translucent, and opaque.
• The student has developed an understanding of the basic needs of animals, including food, water, and shelter, and how animals depend on plants or other animals for food.
• They have learned about the different parts of the human body and their functions, including the skeleton, muscles, heart, lungs, and brain.

For continued development, encourage the student to conduct simple experiments such as growing a plant from seed, observing changes in materials under different conditions, or investigating the diet and habitats of local animals. Additionally, consider using multimedia resources, such as educational science videos and documentaries, to supplement their understanding of science concepts.
