Prepare to FALL into AUTUMN!
These are three of my favorite resources!
This packet embeds the science of Autumn and Why Leaves Change Color into a Literacy Packet.
It helps save time because there is no need to teach science and language arts separately and I think the activities are ones your class will enjoy.
