SEEd Canvas module - Includes a Slides presentation, links to instructional materials, and assignments.

This is an interactive, second grade Nearpod lesson tied to SEEd standard 2.2.4. It guides students through information and activities about finding solutions to human problems mimicking the structure and function of plants or animals.
This resource is a student-ready, three-dimensional SEEd science lesson you can add to your Nearpod library. Many of the phenomena, text, and images come from UEN OER textbooks, Seedstorylines.org, ck12.org, and pixabay.com. Most videos are from youtube.com or pbslearningmedia.org. Many of the simulations were found at phet.colorado.edu, ck12.org, and pbslearningmedia.org. This lesson is unique to Nebo School District but was built with the help of many amazing ideas from teachers throughout Utah.

This is an interactive, second-grade Nearpod lesson tied to SEEd standard 2.3.1. It guides students through information and activities about properties of plastics and recycled material.

Plan and carry out an investigation to classify different kinds of materials based on patterns in their observable properties. Examples could include sorting materials based on similar properties such as strength, color, flexibility, hardness, texture, or whether the materials are solids or liquids.

Construct an explanation showing how the properties of materials influence their intended use and function. Examples could include using wood as a building material because it is lightweight and strong or the use of concrete, steel, or cotton due to their unique properties.

This is a second-grade student science experience tied to SEEd standard 2.3.3. In this experience students explore how objects with different functions can be made of the same pieces.
These experiences were designed to support students in engaging in science investigations with siblings and/or parents at home and then report back about what was discovered. They were created in a way that is easily adaptable for both online and printed formats. They are formatted to help students wonder about and investigate the science phenomena happening in the world around them. These experiences do not describe how students should write up and return work to their teacher. It is up to each teacher to adapt them to best meet student needs. When individualized by the teacher, a student could be asked to engage in one or more of these experiences a week and report back. This format aligns closely to the vision and expectation of the SEEd standards.

Develop and use a model to describe how an object, made of a small set of pieces, can be disassembled and reshaped into a new object with a different function. Emphasize that a great variety of objects can be built from a small set of pieces. Examples of pieces could include wooden blocks or building bricks.

Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about changes in matter caused by heating or cooling. Emphasize that some changes can be reversed, and some cannot. Examples of reversible changes could include freezing water or melting crayons. Examples of irreversible changes could include cooking an egg or burning wood.

Integrated science and literacy lesson plans for Grades 1-2 developed by Cache County School District.

In this video an educator from the Hogle Zoo helps us understand more about beavers, the structure and function of their habitat, and more.

In this instructional video, the Hogle Zoo explains how to use the lesson plan "Beaver Puppet 2.2.2."

By participating in this activity, students will:
• understand the concept of structure and function and how it applies to a beaver's ability to create and live in a wetland habitat.
• make comparisons between their adaptations and the structure and function of a beaver's body for survival in its wetland habitat.

This powerpoint accompanies the lesson plan "A Night in the Life of a Beaver."
