Description
This nonfiction unit is filled with activities to teach your students all about elephants and work on the reading informational text standards. I love to learn about elephants in the spring as we learn about mammals. This unit includes a mini reader that will teach them all about giraffes with a matching colorful book with real photos. This real book can be projected via the digital google link, downloaded as a powerpoint or shared as a pdf. You could even print it and put it in your classroom library. There are so many fun comprehension activities to complete after you read the story. You could do the included research project, make a fun elephant craft, or complete the word work and writing activities. There are loads of goodies in this resource to become elephant experts.
