Lesson 1 is optional and not needed for Lesson 2 or 3. Lesson 1 introduces extreme life with a slime creation activity. Lesson 2 explores extreme creatures through physical play. Lesson 3 focuses on the extreme life found in the Sonoran Desert. The K-2 modules do not need to be completed sequentially; you can pick and choose which modules work for your classroom.
