Kindergarten Science Lesson Plans
8 plans covering the science topics kindergarten actually teaches. Each one is a full lesson: objective, timed steps, a check for understanding, and the practice pages to hand out.
What science looks like in kindergarten
Kindergarten science is noticing. Weather, plants, animals and the five senses, taught through observation and description rather than explanation.
Kindergarten is the year the formal skills start: letters to sounds, numerals to quantities, and the first independent writing. Lessons still run on short blocks with plenty of modelling.
