My Project
Spring is quickly approaching and is such a fun time for our kindergarten students! We enjoy learning about the life cycle of various animals and creatures, observing and learning about bugs and their roles in the ecosystem, and giving back to the environment.
This project includes resources that will give my students exciting learning opportunities such as witnessing the butterfly life cycle, observing ants, and learning about birds.
This life science unit is such a fun and exciting experiment for students that will serve as memories for them for many years to come!
