It is written in both English and Spanish. It aligns to the Next Gen Science Standards K, 1, and 2 Life Science standards. Included: -Writing template (adaptations, habitat, description, fun facts) -Vocabulary Word Bank -Word Wall Word Bank I created this this year for my 1st grade dual language / dual immersion students and it was such a great success that I passed it along for my other Kinder, 1st grade, and 2nd grade colleagues to use. Their kids love it and their expository writing has been improving greatly because they can’t forget to put in any of the parts because the parts are part of the template. Copyright © Josh Rageth.
