Map notes: Be sure
to point out the many islands along the coast of British Columbia and let your
child know that it rains a lot there!
Science notes: Salmon life
cycle- Paste the pictures in order (or in a circle with arrows from one stage
to the next that shows a "never ending cycle").
Craft notes: Make
Your Own Totem Pole - This printable has some information about totem poles and
some color and cut out totem pole parts. Paste the parts onto a paper towel tube
to make your own totem pole!
Extras notes: If you live near where
salmon are and it's the right time of year, consider taking a field trip to see
the salmon spawning. If it's not the right time of year, maybe you can schedule
this trip later and just pull out your history pocket from this week to refresh
your child's memory. If you don't live anywhere near any salmon, hopefully you
can get a video from your local library! |
