Will this help with my child's Kindergarten science homework?

Yes. Find the topic in the list above, work through the lesson, then practice with similar problems to reinforce what your child learned in class.

What science topics do Florida Kindergarteners learn?

Florida Kindergarteners explore living vs. non-living things, weather patterns, properties of objects, and basic Earth science aligned to B.E.S.T. Standards.

Is there a science test for Kindergarten in Florida?

Florida's FAST assessment does not test Kindergarten science. Kindergarten science builds the foundation for tested grades in later elementary school.

Florida Kindergarten Science Aligned to B.E.S.T. Standards

Florida's B.E.S.T. Standards for Science set the foundation for what Kindergarten students learn across the state. StudyPug's Kindergarten science content is built around these standards, so your child is always learning what their Florida teacher is covering in class.

What Florida Kindergarteners Learn in Science

Kindergarten science in Florida covers four main areas:

Living and Non-Living Things: Students learn to tell the difference between living organisms and non-living objects, and explore basic needs of plants and animals.
Weather and Seasons: Students observe and describe daily weather patterns, seasonal changes, and how weather affects daily life.
Earth's Materials: Students explore soil, rocks, and water as natural resources found on Earth.
Properties of Objects: Students describe objects using observable properties like size, shape, color, and texture, and explore how objects can be sorted.
