Apologia Swimming Creatures (Fish) Lesson 7 with fish craft

We are moving right along with our Apologia Swim Creatures Curriculum for the year. Wrapping up lesson 7 (fish)

We have a few lakes in our development, so with nets and buckets in hand my kids and I headed off to one of the lakes to catch minnows.



We have observed them and now it's time to put them back in the lake.

We also make a fish craft to go with this lesson

materials needed:
strips of construction paper
stapler
pull ring from milk carton and googly eye



My son wrote on is strips of paper, praises of praising God.

Stay tuned for Lesson 8 -- sharks + sting rays!

Linking this homeschool post up to Homeschool Creations, Weird Unsocialized Homeschoolers, and delicate Construction this week!

  7. I love the craft but it would be good to see it done in steps, never knew what the milk ring was for. Very nice blog and topics for young moms and children!
