Kindergarten Science worksheets
These are the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) expectations for kindergarten science (typically ages 5–6). Edstronaut writes practice questions against them — around your child's own name, interests and the people in their life — and every answer sheet cites the standard it covers.

What kindergarten science covers
13 published expectations from Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). Every question Edstronaut writes cites one of these.
Grade K
- K-PS2-1Plan and conduct an investigation to compare the effects of different strengths or different directions of pushes and pulls on the motion of an object.
- K-PS2-2Analyze data to determine if a design solution works as intended to change the speed or direction of an object with a push or a pull.
- K-PS3-1Make observations to determine the effect of sunlight on Earth's surface.
- K-PS3-2Use tools and materials to design and build a structure that will reduce the warming effect of sunlight on an area.
- K-LS1-1Use observations to describe patterns of what plants and animals (including humans) need to survive.
- K-ESS2-1Use and share observations of local weather conditions to describe patterns over time.
- K-ESS2-2Construct an argument supported by evidence for how plants and animals (including humans) can change the environment to meet their needs.
- K-ESS3-1Use a model to represent the relationship between the needs of different plants or animals (including humans) and the places they live.
- K-ESS3-2Ask questions to obtain information about the purpose of weather forecasting to prepare for, and respond to, severe weather.
- K-ESS3-3Communicate solutions that will reduce the impact of humans on the land, water, air, and/or other living things in the local environment.
- K-2-ETS1-1Ask questions, make observations, and gather information about a situation people want to change to define a simple problem that can be solved through the development of a new or improved object or tool.
- K-2-ETS1-2Develop a simple sketch, drawing, or physical model to illustrate how the shape of an object helps it function as needed to solve a given problem.
- K-2-ETS1-3Analyze data from tests of two objects designed to solve the same problem to compare the strengths and weaknesses of how each performs.
