Antarctica Resources and Reading Comprehension Worksheet

antarcticaLast year, my son and I went through the continents one at a time. We started with Antarctica lessons. Here are some of the resources we enjoyed.

I also created a basic Reading Comprehension worksheet for him. Although he was only four at the time, the reading level was just about right for him. (It’s hard to find simple yet appropriate things for an early reader!) Feel free to use the worksheet and this list of resources in your own classes!

I only ask one thing: if the worksheet is helpful to you, let me know in a comment on this post!
