Arkansas 1st Grade Science Standards

Arkansas 1st grade science is guided by the Arkansas Science Standards, which focus on building foundational knowledge across life science, earth science, and physical science. Students learn to observe, ask questions, and describe the world around them through hands-on concepts and structured lessons.

Key Topics in 1st Grade Science

Living and Nonliving Things: Students learn to identify and sort living organisms from nonliving objects and describe basic needs of living things.
Weather and Seasons: Students observe daily weather patterns and understand how seasons change throughout the year.
Properties of Materials: Students explore how objects can be described by their physical properties such as color, shape, size, and texture.
Light and Sound: Students investigate how light and sound behave and how they are produced and detected.
Earth Materials: Students are introduced to soil, rocks, and water as basic materials found on Earth.
