Grade 1 Science Worksheets

The world is one giant science lab for a first grader! Our Grade 1 Science worksheets channel that natural curiosity into structured exploration. Children observe weather, explore their five senses, sort living and nonliving things, and discover what makes plants grow. Every worksheet encourages asking questions - the very heart of scientific thinking.

Key Skills in Grade 1 Science

• Telling apart living things (plants, animals) from nonliving ones (rocks, toys)
• Drawing and describing today's weather - sunny, rainy, cloudy, or snowy
• Using the five senses to describe objects around the house
• Naming basic parts of a plant: roots, stem, leaves, flower
• Identifying push and pull forces in daily activities
• Sorting materials by texture: rough, smooth, hard, soft

Example Questions

1. Is a bicycle living or nonliving? Write one reason for your answer.
2. Look outside your window. Draw what the sky looks like and label the weather.
3. Touch a cotton ball and a piece of sandpaper. Which is smooth and which is rough?

How to Use These Worksheets

Pair every worksheet with a real-world activity. After completing a weather sheet, step outside and check the sky together. After a senses worksheet, play a blindfold guessing game with household items. Science sticks when kids do, not just read.
