These print and go, low-to-no prep Science Circuit Stations are easy to implement with a few household items and provide a method for reinforcing life science that shows how science concepts flow across the curricula and are relatable in all aspects of life.

WHAT'S INCLUDED IN THIS 1-2 DAY LESSON:

7 activities and one assessment aligned to NGSS (Next Generation Science Standards) covering the following topics:

• Invertebrates and Vertebrates
• Animal characteristics, classification and behaviors including movement, obtaining food and reproduction
• Vertebrate animal characteristics of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish
• Animal symmetry including asymmetry, radial, and bilateral symmetry
• Using a dichotomous key

• Learn about science through using Social Studies (which includes history, current events and geography), Technology (computers and engineering), ELA (reading and writing), the Arts (music, art, PE/dance and debate), and Math
• Participate in the following student-led stations:

Explorer: explore current events, historical figures and events, etc.

Researcher: research related topics using a computer, smart phone, ipad or other electronic device

Maker: engineer, design, build, assemble, and/or experiment with manipulatives

Scriber: write a response to a question or problem

Reader: answer questions related to a reading passage

Performer: participate in one of the many arts

Solver: use math skills to answer science related math problems
