- Exploring pumpkins
- This lesson will allow students to use a variety of methods to explore pumpkins.
- Format: lesson plan (grade K Information Skills, English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science)
- By Angelia Braswell.
- From dirt to dinner
- This lesson serves as an introductory study of the plant world. The lesson allows students to study seeds, parts of plants, microclimates, and how to grow seeds into vegetable plants for harvest. Parents are encouraged to assist at home.
- Format: lesson plan (grade K English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science)
- By Glenn Bass.
- Measure mania
- Kindergarten students will measure using non-standard units. After several practices, students will compare measurements.
- Format: lesson plan (grade K English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science)
- By Hollie Humphreys.
- Plant Power
- Students will plant their own seeds in potting soil and measure plant growth. Before the students' plants are visible above the soil, students will explore the parts and functions of classroom plants and compare growth between the classroom plants. Using the weather channel website, students will predict weather the day's weather conditions are excellent, good, or poor for plant growth.
- Format: lesson plan (grade K Mathematics)
- By Rhonda Hathcock.
- Sizing up Sam the Scarecrow
- Students will integrate measurement as a math activity during "S" week as they talk about Scarecrows and the Season Fall.
- Format: lesson plan (grade K Mathematics)
