Life Cycles in the Classroom and a Giveaway

Published: April 18, 2014 | 07:25

Hello First Grade Friends! Spring has finally sprung and it's time for me to begin some favorite science themes in the classroom! LIFE CYCLES!

I wanted to share some cute new items I've been working on that you may enjoy for your lessons and activities in the coming weeks like this butterfly flap book project!

This PowerPoint would be a great introduction for your unit and will go along perfectly with the project!

I found some super photos of each stage I know your students would enjoy seeing!

I usually project my PowerPoints on the SMARTBoard so the class can get a better view not possible with a read aloud.

You can see more at my TPT store here, or by clicking on any of the images, if you are interested.

I also added a flap book for the life cycle of a frog.

There is a companion PowerPoint for frogs too!

Do you hatch chicks in your school?

If so, you might like this cute presentation as well!

All Life Cycles PowerPoints Science Spring

Arctic Animals PowerPoint

(Please excuse my missing blog template while I await installation of a new one)!!!

Enough already!Another big blast of winter and an arctic air mass is heading our way. There may be a snow day on the first day back from break! Good grief! What do I do when a massive winter storm is approaching? After stocking up on groceries, filling up the tank and other responsible stuff, I finish a PowerPoint about arctic animals!

January, especially in snowy states, is a great time of year for an arctic animals thematic unit. I plan to use this powerPoint as a "big book" to project onto the SMARTBoard as we go through our unit.

I purchased some gorgeous photographs to include for 15 of the fascinating animals of the arctic circle. Each page contains some interesting facts and also describes the adaptations that make each of these creatures well-suited for the harsh environment in which they live.

Here's a look at some of the slides included:

To see and read more at my store, click on any of the images.

This new item is 50% off for the first 24 hours! If this is something you might like for your class, you can grab it up at a great price!

Usually friends, I would ask that you do the snow dance for me or put that white crayon under your pillow or whatever superstitions might give us a snow day, but I've had enough time off and will save my favor for another occasion! :)
