FOSS AND CALIFORNIA STANDARDS
The Trees Module supports the following
Investigation and Experimentation Content Standards for
kindergarten.*
INVESTIGATION AND EXPERIMENTATION
I&E4 Scientific progress is made by asking meaningful questions
and conducting careful investigations.
As a basis for understanding this concept and addressing the content
in the other three strands, students should develop their own
questions and perform investigations. Students will
I&E4a. observe common objects by using the five senses.
I&E4b. describe the properties of common objects.
I&E4d. compare and sort common objects by one physical
attribute (e.g., color, shape, texture, size, weight).
I&E4e. communicate observations orally and through drawings.
*Science Content Standards for California Public Schools: Kindergarten
through Grade Twelve (Sacramento: California Department of
Education, 2000).
