Instead of just filling in workbook short answers, introduce your children to expressing their knowledge in complete sentences of their own. Basic questions are given for directed investigation. Besides reporting skills, your children will automatically practice language, penmanship, and library/encyclopedia/dictionary skills. Students then create their own reports with or without a picture. Included is a set of reproducible report forms with varying line heights. Activity suggestions for each subject include art, music, language, reading, math, social studies/history, science/health, P.E., Bible, and field trips. A list of additional resources is included, as well as other information; e.g., the scientific classifications of the animal and/ or plant kingdoms in packets where these are studied.
This packet contains sheets on NonFlyers, Penguins, Sea Swimmers, Tall Waders, Sea/Shore, Water, Game, Birds/Prey, Owls, Tropical, Perchers, Hummingbirds/Swifts, NonPerchers. Using one topic per week, a packet will last an entire quarter.
Written with Grades 3 and 4 in mind; Grades 1 and 2 can do these with parental direction. Though the front cover may appear juvenile, these are perfect for remedial work for Grades 5 through 8.
