This comprehensive science bundle has everything you need for teaching science to 3rd-grade students. With this bundle, you get everything you need to cover in one complete unit.

Topics Covered:

• Life Science

• Physical Science

• Earth & Space Science

It even includes reading passages, worksheets, activities—everything! No more buying small units for each topic covered in your science curriculum! Instead of spending hours searching for resources online, just download the bundle and get started.

It's Printable and Digital! That means you can use it in whatever works best for your classroom or distance learning students: at home or on the go!

The reading passages, worksheets, activities, and more are all aligned to Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) so you can be sure that your students are getting a top-notch education.

The Activities featured in this resource align with Next Generation Science Standards:

LIFE SCIENCE

• SC.3.L.14.1 Describe Structures in plants and their roles in food production, support, water and nutrient transport, and reproduction. 

• SC.3.L.14.2 Investigate and describe how plants respond to stimuli (heat, light, gravity) such as the way plant stems grow toward light and their roots grow downward in response to gravity.

• SC.3.L.15.1 Classify animals into major groups (mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, arthropods, vertebrates and invertebrates, those having live births, and those which lay eggs) according to their physical characteristics and behavior. 

• SC.3.L.15.2 Classify flowering and nonflowering plants into major groups such as those that produce seeds, or those like ferns and mosses that produce spores, according to their physical characteristics.

• SC.3.P.17.1 Describe how animals and plants respond to changing seasons.

• SC.3.L.17.2 Recognize that plants use energy from the Sun, air, and water to make their own food.

PHYSICAL SCIENCE

• SC.3.P.8.1 Measure and compare temperatures of various samples of solids and liquids. 

• SC.3.P 8.2 Measure and compare the mass and volume of solids and liquids.

• SC.3.P.8.3 Compare materials and objects according to properties such as size, shape, color, texture, and hardness.

• SC.3.P 9.1 Describe the changes water undergoes when it changes state through heating and cooling by using familiar scientific terms such as melting, freezing, boiling, evaporation, and condensation.

• SC.3.P.10.1 Identify some basic forms of energy such as light, heat, sound, electrical, and mechanical.

• SC.3.P.10.2 Recognize that energy has the ability to cause motion or create change.

• SC.3.P.10.3 Demonstrate that light travels in a straight line until it strikes an object or travels from one medium to another.

• SC.3.P.10.4 Demonstrate that light can be reflected, refracted, and absorbed.

• SC.3.P.11.1 Investigate, observe and explain that things that give off light often also give off heat.

• SC.3.P.11.2 Investigate, observe and explain that heat is produced when one object rubs against another, such as rubbing one's hands together.

EARTH & SPACE SCIENCE

• SC.3.E.5.1 Explain that stars can be different; some are smaller, some are larger, and some appear brighter than others; all except the Sun are so far away that they look like points of light.

• SC.3.E.5.2 Identify the Sun as a star that emits energy; some of it in the form of light.

• SC.3.E.5.3 Recognize that the Sun appears large and bright because it is the closest star to Earth.

• SC.3.E.5.4 Explore the Law of Gravity by demonstrating that gravity is a force that can be overcome.

• SC.3.E.5.5 Investigate that the number of stars that can be seen through telescopes is dramatically greater than those seen by the unaided eye.

• SC.3.E.6.1 Demonstrate that radiant energy from the Sun can heat objects and when the Sun is not present, heat may be lost.
