1 A Science Notebook Set Up Packet for Primary Grades By Nancy VandenBerge Firstgradewow.blogspot.com Graphics By Thistle Girl, scrappindoodles
2 This little unit is intended to be an aid in setting up a science notebook or journal with kids. It includes A science song Anchor chart idea Science notebook cover Thinking maps Science mini posters Scientific Method mini posters I am a scientist pages Simply print off, (some are available in both color and black and white) punch holes and place into a folder or binder with fasteners. I have also included a set of vocabulary cards either for display in your science center, or have kids collect them in a Science Saver, a simple envelope or on a ring for handy, consistent review opportunities.
3 Our Science Song (Mary Had a Little Lamb) Can we learn something new about our world, new about our world, new about our world? Can we learn something new about our world and can we make a guess? HYPOTHESIS! Can we then find out if it s true, find out if it s true, find out if it s true? Can we then find out if it s true through an EXPERIMENT? EXPERMENT!
4 Our Classroom Scientist Anchor Chart **Have students help think of things to put on bubbles.

16 The next few pages include science vocabulary cards. The kids can cut them apart, draw a little picture to show what they know, and keep them in the Science Saver (directions follow!). Or punch a hole and put them on a ring. Teachers can also post words in their science centers, along with pictures to make it interactive.

59 Science Saver The next couple of pages show pictures of the steps to take in order to make a Science Saver. You will start with a simple pocket folder (no fasteners). Trim off the top leaving a curved edge. Cut a slit in the pocket. Fold the curved edge over so it will fit into the slit. Add the labels. You ca use this to store vocabulary cards and other treasures throughout the year!
