Will this help with my child's Grade 1 science homework?

Yes. StudyPug covers every Grade 1 science strand taught in Newfoundland and Labrador schools, including life cycles, weather, local ecosystems, and properties of matter, so your child can find help for any homework topic quickly.

How long are the video lessons?

Most Grade 1 science video lessons run between three and eight minutes, keeping them short enough to hold a young learner's attention. Your child can pause, rewind, and re-watch any lesson as many times as needed.

Is there a provincial test for Grade 1 science in Newfoundland and Labrador?

Grade 1 is not a provincial assessment year in Newfoundland and Labrador. Provincial assessments typically occur at later grade levels, so the focus at Grade 1 is on building foundational science understanding in the classroom.

Can my child use StudyPug on a tablet or phone?

Yes. StudyPug works on tablets, phones, and computers, so your child can practice Grade 1 science lessons at home, on the go, or anywhere with an internet connection, without needing to download a separate app.

Can I try StudyPug before paying?

Yes. StudyPug offers free sample lessons so you can explore Grade 1 science content before subscribing. There is also a 30-day money-back guarantee, giving your family time to make sure it is the right fit.
