I'll solve the problems presented in this Grade 1 Science Worksheet about shade structures.
Let me go through each question one by one:
Question 1: Which block of ice melts faster?
Looking at the two images, I can see that one has a palm tree providing shade over the ice block, while the other has no shade. Since the sun sends light and heat (as stated in the box), the ice block without shade will be exposed directly to the sun's heat and will melt faster.
Question 2: Which girl is hotter?
In the first image, a girl is running under direct sunlight. In the second image, a girl is standing under an umbrella, which provides shade. The girl under the umbrella will be cooler because she's protected from the direct sun. Therefore, the girl running in the sun is hotter.
Question 3: Draw something to make the boy cooler.
This is a creative question asking students to draw something that would provide shade or cooling for the boy standing in the sun. Possible answers could include drawing an umbrella, a tree, a hat, or a cloud.
Question 4: What makes better shade? An umbrella or a piece of glass? Why?
An umbrella makes better shade than a piece of glass. Glass allows sunlight to pass through it (it's transparent), so it wouldn't block the sun's heat effectively. An umbrella blocks the sunlight completely, creating shade and keeping things cooler underneath.
The worksheet is teaching children about how shade works and how it can protect from the sun's heat.
