Life is all around!

So this week I am the proud mother of a son who graduating with his masters plus in micro biology and then moving off to Louisisana to complete his PHD.  So the "life cycle" continues even in my own family.
This makes what my class is doing this week even more exciting.  this year I did a little "pre planning" so all life experiences would be in place before our study began.  Guess what?  It worked!  (Don't ya just love it when your plans work?!)
So...our plants are growing, our butterflies are close to emerging, and the kiddos have found tadpole eggs to complete our life cycle study.
This unit is so much fun.  It contains informational text, vocabulary cards, observations, and life cycle charts.
This unit is one of my favorites and again filled with informational text, vocabulary cards, observations, and life cycle charts.




The art project is a favorite and perfect to decorate the hall into our room.


Don't miss this wonderful unit and if you can find a few tadpoles like we did it makes it even more exciting.  It is filled with a mixture of fact and fiction with some of our favorite characters.
Below is a wonderful assessment piece to see what information the kiddos retained.
Not bad for a "life cycle" unit!
