Earth Day is held on the same day each year, April 22nd. This year’s theme is Planets vs. Plastics, which is chosen annually by EarthDay.org. With Earth Day being this upcoming Monday, it creates an ideal opportunity to introduce the Earth Day theme and continue students’ understanding of this theme throughout the week!
Children learn that living things grow and change. They learn to compare animal parents and babies. They see that some animal babies do not look like their parents. From tadpole to frog, egg to chicken, caterpillar to butterfly, and puppy to dog; students are introduced to, and learn the stages of, the life cycles of animals.
