I Know About Sea Turtles: Research Fun!

This week we finished up our research projects on sea turtles.

 
My first grader loves learning facts about animals, so he really got into putting this portfolio together. We read about sea turtles, answered questions, filled out a KWL chart, labeled a turtle, compared sea turtles to tortoises with a Venn diagram, learned about the life cycle, distinguished between facts and opinions, created a turtle poem, and made our own picture using a directed drawing!
 
 
Here are a couple of fun crafts I found to go along with our study:
