The resource for Grade 1 introduces foundational science concepts centered on the self and immediate surroundings.

• Core Themes: It explores human life stages (“I Am Born,” “I Grow Up”), the five senses, and basic needs for growth such as water, food, and clean air .
• Climate & Environment: Early lessons focus on respecting the community by keeping gardens, playgrounds, and schools clean. It introduces basic environmental ethics through stories that emphasize how taking care of nature helps everyone enjoy a healthy world .

Grade 2 expands into the broader natural world, focusing on animals and the impacts of human waste.

• Core Themes: Students learn about animal classification (wild vs. domestic) and their diverse habitats, including terrestrial, aquatic, and aerial environments.
• Climate & Environment: The resource introduces the concept of endangered species and threats like overhunting . A significant portion is dedicated to recycling adventures with “heroes” like Paper, Plastic, and Cans to teach the disadvantages of trash and the benefits of alternative materials to reduce petroleum-based plastic use .

The Grade 3 curriculum focuses on the interconnectedness of living things and how they respond to environmental changes .

• Core Themes: It covers the fundamental parts of plants and their functions, as well as the difference between living and non-living elements in an ecosystem .
• Climate & Environment: This level introduces climate change through storytelling, such as “Frosty” the polar bear, to illustrate how animals must learn to adapt as their homes change . Students are challenged to draw how environments are affected by climate change and discuss how air pollution can spread germs.

Grade 4 transitions into more complex internal biological systems and the physical properties of matter.

• Core Themes: The resource explores the respiratory and digestive systems, as well as the three states of matter (solid, liquid, and gas) .
• Climate & Environment: Students engage in hands-on “challenges” to build body system models using recycled materials. It explicitly links health to the environment by studying the effects of air and water pollution on the human body, such as breathing difficulties and stomach diseases.

Grade 5 focuses on sophisticated survival strategies in nature and the management of Earth’s resources .

• Core Themes: Lessons include animal adaptations for extreme environments (like hibernation and camouflage), the properties of rocks, and the science of sound.
• Climate & Environment: The resource highlights how climate change disrupts reproduction cycles (e.g., frogs and sea turtles) and camouflage . It also introduces “noise pollution” and tasks students with acting as a “President” or “Mayor” to propose solutions for energy conservation and environmental protection.

The final level provides an in-depth look at biological structures and the global systems that sustain life .

• Core Themes: The curriculum covers cellular biology (cell parts and tissues), the water cycle, the nervous system, and ecosystem dynamics including food chains (producers, consumers, and decomposers) .
• Climate & Environment: Grade 6 students are introduced as “Climate Stewards”. They study advanced concepts like the greenhouse effect, carbon footprints, and sustainable development . Activities include analyzing “Climate Change Chaos” in pollination, discussing renewable vs. non-renewable energy, and exploring specific environmental problems in Lebanon.
