Turning into a caterpillar is hard. It takes a long time. At least, that is how the caterpillar feel in The Very Impatient Caterpillar. This is great story for talking about metamorphosis and patience. I like to read this story in the spring on the first day that we get our caterpillars.
We always create this adorable craft and talk about the life cycle of the caterpillar. It is a great way to integrate science into your language arts lessons. There are also vocabulary cards, graphic organizers, and lesson plans.
Plus, I have included a pocket chart sort for patient versus impatient. Who else’s class needs this little reminder this spring????
You really can’t read The Very impatient Caterpillar with reading The Little Butterfly That Could. Now the caterpillar is a butterfly and has to migrate, but he is a little scared. This is another vocabulary rich book that is perfect for integrating science and language arts this spring. I have included a craft, graphic organizers, vocabulary words, and lesson plans.
Plus, I have included these growth mindset cards. This is a great way to work on social emotional learning at the end of the school year.
