Description
A Nest Full of Eggs Nonfiction Unit combines reading strategies, science, and STEM to teach the life cycle of a bird. Through colorfully illustrated pages and engaging activities, children get an in-depth look at bird habitats and feathers. The book companion starts with comprehension of the story, followed by the importance of diagrams where students learn to draw the bird’s life cycle. They then create their own egg craft books to label the parts of eggs and describe their purpose. To gain real-world context, students can take a walk around their school to search for nests or watch videos included in this package if they can't find any. After learning about nests they will design and build a bird nest of their own! To top it all off, the last activity is a fun and easy snack craft using pretzels and jellybeans - sure to be a hit with teachers and students alike!
