Using Our Senses to Explore the Beach! | Science at the Beach! | SciShow Kids

Squeaks went on a trip to the beach, and wants to tell Mister Brown all about it! And, we can learn all about the science that formed the beach, plus a guest appearance by Grady the tardigrade to talk all about the plants and animals in the ocean that we can't see.

Hosted by: Anthony Brown

Teachers and parents: scroll down to check out the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for this episode!

Second Grade Next Generation Science Standards

Disciplinary Core Ideas:

LS4.D: Biodiversity and Humans - There are many different kinds of living things in any area, and they exist in different places on land and in water (2-LS4-1).

ESS2.A: Earth Materials and Systems - Wind and water can change the shape of the land (2-ESS2-1).

ESS2.B: Plate Tectonics and Large-Scale System Interactions - Maps show where things are located. One can map the shapes and kinds of land and water in any area (2-ESS2-2).

ESS2.C: The Roles of Water in Earths Surface Processes - Water is found in the ocean, rivers, lakes, and ponds. Water exists as solid ice and in liquid form (2-ESS2-3).

Performance Expectations:

2-LS4-1. Make observations of plants and animals to compare the diversity of life in different habitats.

2-ESS2-1. Compare multiple solutions designed to slow or prevent wind or water from changing the shape of the land.

2-ESS2-2 Develop a model to represent the shapes and kinds of land and bodies of water in an area.

2-ESS2-3 Obtain information to identify where water is found on Earth and that it can be solid or liquid.
