Cute plant book and a freebie

In kindergarten, we finished up our plant unit this past week. Have you ever heard of the book, A Plant Called Spot, by Nancy J. Peteraf. I can't get over how cute it is.


The children and I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the adorable illustrations. After I read the book, we talked about our favorite part. I model wrote my favorite part and then the children did the same.


 My favorite part in the book was when Teddy treated the plant nice.


We also wrote some facts about plants.


Click on the picture above to download the plant fact sheet I used.

Next up...


If you are not done planning your Earth Day activities, please check out my Earth Day Unit by clicking on the picture below. I am excited to get started using the activities next week. Have a great weekend!
