Hands-On Science and Technology for Ontario, Grade 1 is an easy-to-use resource for teaching the five strands of the Ontario science and technology (2022) curriculum:
STEM Skills and Connections
Life Systems: Needs and Characteristics of Living Things
Matter and Energy: Energy in Our Lives
Structures and Mechanisms: Everyday Materials, Objects, and Structures
Earth and Space Systems: Daily and Seasonal Changes
Hands-On Science and Technology for Ontario, Grade 1 encourages students’ natural curiosity about science and the world around them as they participate in hands-on activities and explore their environment. Using the inquiry approach, this comprehensive resource
fosters students’ understanding of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) skills
makes coding and emerging technologies approachable for both teachers and students
emphasizes personalized learning using a four-part instructional process: activate, action, consolidate and debrief, enhance
relates science and technology to sustainability and our changing world, including society, the economy, and the environment
focuses on practical applications of the engineering design process as students work on solutions to real-life problems
builds understanding of Indigenous knowledge and perspectives specific to Ontario
explores contributions to science and technology by people with diverse lived experiences
Using proven Hands-On features, this book provides resources for both teachers and students including background information on the science topics; complete, easy-to-follow lesson plans; materials lists; and digital image banks and reproducibles (find download instructions in the Appendix of the book).
Innovative elements developed specifically for the Ontario curriculum include the following:
plugged and unplugged coding activities in nearly every lesson
land-based learning activities
opportunities for students to use guided research, hands-on inquiry, and the engineering design process
a fully developed assessment plan to guide assessment for, as, and of learning
ideas and prompts for STEM Makerspace projects
