"What is Wildlife," "Introduction to Habitat," and "Food Webs" are the main topics for the Lower Primary Guide. These areas of inquiry are connected to one another by using the following themes as organizers: Models, Systems, Energy (Matter) Flow & Exchange, and Patterns of Change. These organizing themes are similar to those utilized in the Kansas State Board of Education Curricular Standards of Science.

The materials and activities are not just science oriented, but can be integrated into a variety of subjects within the on-going curriculum.
