In Year 1 science, pupils learn about seasonal changes, observing how weather and daylight change throughout the year. Through hands-on activities like making a rain gauge, they explore how the seasons affect plants, animals, and their surroundings. Our easy-to-use science scheme of work and resources help teachers deliver effective year 1 science lessons that build key scientific knowledge without the extra planning.
