1.SL.1 Participate in collaborative conversations with diverse partners about grade 1 topics and texts
with peers and adults in small and larger groups. a. Follow agreed-upon rules for discussions (e.g.,
listening to others with care, speaking one at a time about the topics and texts under discussion).
1.SL.5 Add drawings or other visual displays to descriptions when appropriate to clarify ideas, thoughts,
and feelings.
Lesson Objectives:
After we discuss what science is, students will be able to orally tell what science is and some things that
they may learn about with teacher prompting.
After watching a video over what scientists do, students will participate in a discussion about what
scientists do with teacher support.
After discussing what scientists do, students will be able to participate and record their observations
after doing different scientific activities with 80% accuracy.
After discussing what scientists do, students will draw a picture and caption what type of scientist they
would want to be without teacher support.
Materials Needed:
● Gummy worms
● What is Science? Book
● What is a scientist? Smartboard
● Sid the Science Kid - Scientist (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_hm2_VVeqk&t=22s)
● Inference bags
● Paper clips
● Reading book, desk
● Observation report

B. Assessments Used
● Informal assessments - I will be discussing with students what they think science is and then
after the book they will add more ideas to the board. Then after watching a video about
scientists, we will discuss what scientists do orally.
● I will observe students interacting with the skills of inferring, classifying, observing, and
measuring and will look over their worksheet. I will try to scaffold all groups learning to deter
them from incorrect work without giving them the full answers.
C. Differentiated Instruction
Advanced learners - These students will be more of the facilitators of the group work to ensure that the
students are all understanding a concept. I will make sure there is at least one advanced learner in the
group to help scaffold lower level learners when I may not be there to do so.
Average Learners - These students will also help facilitate the group work and will be a large part of the
discussion on the board. I will not need to adjust much for these students.
Below learners - These students will be supported by the advanced learners and myself. I will ask them
questions during the discussion and confirms meanings and focus during class time.
D. Back Up Plan
If students finish their group work early, I will give them a piece of paper with space to draw and lines
for them to write on. I will pose the question, “What kind of scientist would you like to be?” This activity
will be open to student interpretation. If we don’t get to this on Thursday, we will do it Friday morning
as a bellringer activity.
