Choosing Life Science Practice for 1st Grade

Life Science worksheets give elementary students focused, repeatable practice with life science as part of observation, questioning, and understanding the natural and physical world.

Use the resource previews above to choose a life science activity that fits your learner. Check the directions, reading load, and answer-key availability on each resource before printing.

First graders move from recognizing letters and numbers to using them — reading simple sentences, adding and subtracting within 20, and writing short responses. They benefit from worksheets that scaffold a skill step by step. Sessions of 15 to 20 minutes work well, with a mix of independent and guided practice.
