Hi guys, today I wanted to share with you our snake mini unit. This unit came about after finding a large snake skin in our backyard and a small snake in our garage. The kids were pretty excited to do a unit study on snakes so I agreed. Here are some of the things we did.
We first reviewed the difference and similarities between reptiles and mammals.
We used our DIY Venn diagram felt. My younger son just sorted animal figurines.
Next we learned all about the snake anatomy. My 3rd grader wrote a paragraph about how snakes use their body for survival.
He also labeled the parts of a snake in his notebook
We also learned all about the life cycle of a snake
You can find the life cycle figurines on Amazon.
We also made a diorama using a kit from Amazon.
Here are all the books we read during this unit study.
