3rd Grade Science in Georgia

Georgia 3rd graders study a wide range of science topics under the Georgia Standards of Excellence. From understanding animal habitats and plant life cycles to exploring rocks, soil, forces, and weather, this grade builds a strong foundation for all future science learning.

Life Science Topics

Students learn how plants and animals depend on their environment. Topics include habitats, adaptations, food chains, and the life cycles of plants and animals. These lessons connect classroom learning to the natural world around them.

Physical Science Topics

3rd grade physical science introduces forces and motion. Students explore how pushes and pulls affect objects and begin to understand basic concepts of energy and magnetism in everyday life.

Earth Science Topics

Earth science in 3rd grade covers rocks and minerals, soil types, and weather patterns. Students learn how Earth's surface changes over time and how weather affects living things.
