Description
Reptiles are some seriously cool critters – and not just because they are cold-blooded! In this huge reptiles unit, learn all about types of reptiles, endotherms vs ectotherms, camouflage, warning coloration, life cycles, scales, scutes, and more! Perfect for science class and homeschooling!
Age group: I created this Reptiles unit study with universal design and mixed age groups in mind. This unit study is great for upper elementary school through middle school but is easily adapted for use with other age groups as well.
