Here are some suggested questions to answer after you watch the mini-lesson:

1. Why do birds lay eggs in the spring?

2. What did this lesson make you curious about? What other questions do you have about birds?

Bonus Activity: Can you build a nest that will hold an egg? Give it a try. If you can go outside, gather twigs, leaves, and grass to build with — just like birds do! If you can’t go out, use torn paper, rolled up paper, and string. You can’t use glue or tape! When you’re done building, test your nest with something round — like a marble, or even a real egg!

Here are some suggested questions to answer after you watch the mini-lesson:

1. Are unicorns real? Why do you think that?

2. What did this lesson make you curious about? What other questions do you have about unicorns?

Bonus Activity: Scientists found the fossil bones of an animal that had only one horn. The animal was as big as an elephant. It looked more like a rhinoceros than a horse. But the scientists called it a unicorn. Would you agree that this animal should be called a unicorn? Why or why not?

Students will discuss the exchange of goods and services, as well as trade.
Students will learn about scarcity and food banks.
1. Read the magazine and complete page 3.

In this Mystery, students will learn the importance of sunlight to plants, which is collected by their leaves. Knowing how plants respond to sunlight, they will build creative Grass Heads.

Here are some suggested questions to answer after you watch the mini-lesson:

1. How is glass made?

2. What did this lesson make you curious about? What other questions do you have about glass?

Bonus Activity: Go on a glass “scavenger hunt” in your home. You likely have windows made of glass, but what else? How many different glass objects can you find? How do you know that they’re all glass? Write or draw at least three things you notice that all of these objects have in common. Write or draw at least three things that are different about the objects.

1. Log into HMH and complete the assigned quiz.

Here are some suggested questions to answer after you watch the mini-lesson:

1. How do flowers bloom in the spring?

2. What did this lesson make you curious about? What other questions do you have about flowers?

Bonus Activity: You can see for yourself how water moves inside a plant. Fill a glass with water and add a few drops of red or blue food coloring. Place a white flower in the glass. Wait a few hours and watch to see what happens. Look closely at the flower petals. What do you notice? Repeat this experiment, but use a stalk of celery or a lettuce leaf.
