Weekly Graphing Idea - Pets


Rather than ask "What's your favorite pet?", I gave each child one of these coloring sheets (which you can get here) and told them to color their pet and write its name. Then we graphed the results.

(Hint: the hamster can also stand in for a guinea pig)

One year, I actually had a child who told me he had a pet chameleon. Needless to say, he free-handed that picture.

Subject: Natural Science
Study Unit: Pets


What do you think is on the boy's back?
It's a type of walking stick. It's an insect. Can you see its 6 legs?
The boy doesn't seem afraid. Why do you think he's not afraid?
Do you think this boy keeps this insect as a pet?
Is this the kind of pet a lot of people would own?
Would you like this as a pet? Why or why not?
What would you feed this pet?
