This is the last night to  win the "Mystery Egg" science research project for 2nd-3rd grade!! Simply join the blog, then comment under this blog post and I will send the lesson directly to your inbox!

Success!

Well, the science research was a success. :) The activity took about 3 days~we finished it off today by having the students present. I was a little surprised when a couple of students guessed the animals such as Macaw, Black Mamba, and Diamondback. Who knew?! Here are a couple of pictures~ it was a good reminder of how animals can make any skill more interesting to the little ones :)

Lesson Giveaway!

This weekend only for those who follow me here, I will be giving my non-fiction "Mystery Egg"  animal research project! This lesson supports Common Core non-fiction standards, and is 2nd/3rd grade appropriate~however, it may easily be adapted to other grade levels.

Don't miss out!

Cute to the COMMON CORE!

Good Morning!

Our new common core curriculum has a large focus on integrating non-fiction text into our curriculum. What better way to integrate instruction than with a fun Animal Research! Look for pictures and printables coming soon!
