Unit 2Weeks 7–12

Families and living things

We gather family and community clues and watch living things grow and change.

Start Week 7

Eagles feed chicks in a nest, a bean plant grows from a seed, a dog has burrs in its fur, and an otter floats with its baby. A little house holds family keepsakes.
