Science Lesson Plans for the Week

Throughout the week students will be completing science activities about the given holiday animal that they are studying. They will compare and contrast two similar animals, study the animal’s life cycle, learn the different parts of the animal, complete a real picture sort, and apply everything they have learned at the end of the week by creating a fact book or research project.

Definition Posters

There are different definition posters to help students better understand key vocabulary words about the animal.

Animal Comparison PowerPoint and Posters

Sort and Worksheet
