Suggestions for Use in the Classroom:

1. In my classroom, I like to start with the picture posters. I introduce each one and have a short discussion about each.
2. I introduce the vocabulary posters and we discuss what each of the words mean. 
3. Students independently fill out the KWL chart + then I either have students share with a partner or we share together as a group.
4. Students complete the Can, Have, Are Chart throughout the unit. I do give them prompts to fill it out, but oftentimes they jot down their thoughts as we go independently. 
5. We go over the life cycle poster + labeling posters. Students then complete the corresponding worksheets either independently or with a partner. 
6. Next, we read the mini booklet. I typically do this in small groups, but sometimes we read it as a class. 
7. I will then introduce the reading comprehension page. I do this in a few ways. Sometimes I read the reading comprehension to the class and then they complete the questions independently. Other times I have them fill in the worksheet independently. Also, I have done this in small groups and each group is differentiated. I decide this based on where I think my students are at with their reading skills.
8. Lastly, students fill out the “What I learned” sheets. This is done independently.
