Get ready to learn all about animals! In this week, students will learn about animals that live in different habitats. They will connect to literacy through classic stories like the Three Little Pigs and The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

Your class will need to put their creativity caps on for this lesson where they will create their own creature and write a story about its life.

Second graders love field trips and sharing their opinions! This fun lesson combines both, as students must convince their teacher to take them on a field trip by practicing their opinion writing and using paragraph structure.

Students will love learning about a tiny (yet very interesting!) animal in this rainforest-inspired lesson plan focusing on ants.

Get excited about poetry! This lesson will encourage your students to practice their writing skills as they write their very own list poems about animals.

Help your class grasp the concept of "main idea" with this fun, hands-on lesson. Students will dive into mystery bags full of supportive detail clues to determine the main idea of each bag.

Give your students a chance to hone their reading comprehension skills as they learn about the characters, setting, and plot of their favorite fiction books by creating a story map.
