Biological Classification & Life Cycles
Science & Innovation
Your child can sort living organisms into categories based on their features (e.g., mammals vs. reptiles) and can outline a complete life cycle.
In real life
At a farm, your child points from a chicken to a cow and works it out aloud: "This one has feathers and this one has hair, so they can't be the same kind of animal."
Ages are the anchor. Grade names are Ivy Waters stage labels for this framework, not a claim about any national school system.
