Rationale

Recently in Kindergarten Science, we were learning how there are many different kind of animals and their characteristics, and how some animals even if they are from another species are alike and how they are different. We learn how some are alike in height, size, color, shape, legs and even if they fly or not. I think that is a easy enough topic to teach especially the little ones and so much to take from it.

Instructional Goal
