- Easel Activity
Description
Looking for a resource to inspire your students to explore the magic of Spring? This resource focuses on investigating one of the first signs of Spring. By “slowly” watching how the furry catkins appear your students will learn how to look for patterns in nature. Examining the Polar willow with a focus on solving a design challenge is an engaging science activity. This resource also includes poetry writing and literacy activities.
This resource has been prepared so that your students can use it on digital devices. I have selected suitable slides for you, you need to insert text boxes and you can also add instructions for your students.
