We are jumping back into another science unit! For the next few weeks, we will be learning about Life Cycles. In this week's lesson, “How is Your Life Like an Alligator’s Life?,” students explore animal life cycles by thinking about their birthday buddies—all the animals that were born on the same day as they were born—and what happens to those birthday buddies over the course of their lives. In the activity, Birthday Buddies Timeline, students develop a model to compare the life stories of different animals. Using this model, students discover that although the lives of animals can be very different, they all have in common birth, growth, reproduction, and death.
