This booklet reinforces number and color words and touches on a little science as it involves insects, which can lead to a discussion of what might go on in a garden.

I’ve included 2 graphing extensions to nail that core standard as well.

Besides the graphing extensions, the booklet also offers a variety of other discussion opportunities

All of the things in the garden are seen doing something.  Do they all do the same thing?

The last page asks students how high they can count to.  Which student in your class can count the highest?  How high is that?

When everyone has completed their booklet, read it as a whole group to reinforce concepts of print and so students can take it home and enjoy sharing it with their families.
