Science-Grade+1

In this unit, you will be learning more about properties of matter. You can apply what you are learning in technology to what you are learning about this topic in your sciences classes. We will use technology to help us learn more about this topic by using resources that only technology can provide. You will be watching videos and simulations. You will also be able to take advantage of some great interactive programs that will allow you to change the states of matter as well as other things. This technology unit supports the New York City and New York State Science Curriculum and Standards for 1st Grade.
