Hosted by: Jessi Knudsen Castañeda (she/her/they/them)
Jessi and Squeaks explore why peppermint candies, and mint plants in general, make your mouth feel cold.
First Grade Next Generation Science Standards
Disciplinary Core Idea:
LS1.D: Information Processing - Animals have body parts that capture and convey different kinds of information needed for growth and survival. Animals respond to these inputs with behaviors that help them survive. Plants also respond to some external inputs (1-LS1-1).
Performance Expectation:
1-LS1-1. Use materials to design a solution to a human problem by mimicking how plants and/or animals use their external parts to help them survive, grow, and meet their needs.
