Description

Fall animal migration is in full swing and is a natural phenomenon that your students will love to study! And guess what?! It's a very dynamic concept that can actually apply to physics, life science, Earth science, and space science!

In the episode, I share an animal migration activity for each grade, K-5, paired with a Next Generation Science Standard and an explanation of how it relates to migration. Tune in to hear about:

• Participating in a migration obstacle course (Kindergarten)
• Collecting migration data (1st Grade)
• Planting a Monarch Waystation (2nd Grade)
• Creating a Reindeer migration magnetic map (3rd Grade)
• Comparing migration maps to topographical maps (4th Grade)
