March Weather
March is a perfect month to talk about weather because of its unpredictability. One day can be warm and summer-like, and the next cold and blustery! That is probably why the time-honored “In like a lion, and out like a lamb,” is so popular — because it is true! Read more about Lambs and Lions here.
We have a fun Lion and Lamb packet stuffed with weather-related cross-curricular learning. It has music, math, language arts, writing, art and more. You can check out a preview here.
Also Available at Teachers Pay Teachers!
