Develop students' understanding of reflective symmetry while they practice their drawing skills to complete the reflections of some amazing animals. Students must reflect the animal shapes along a mirror line, using the grid lines provided. Tie in spooky symmetry and seasonal symmetry to key calendar events, or use year-round for some symmetrical fun!
Students investigate ecosystems and understand that they include living and non-living things. They develop basic food chains identifying producers and consumers. They understand that ecosystems can change through both natural causes and human activities.
