Mountains Nature Study Unit

This December, slow down and explore the quiet strength of mountains. 
Children will learn mountain anatomy, how mountains form, the plants and animals that call them home, and the weather patterns that shape these giant landscapes.
 
You will be able to answer questions like these after this study:
Why are mountain lakes so stunningly blue?
Which kind of animals live at specific elevations?
How do mountains form?
What are animal adaptations that make mountain living possible?
How do mountains affect human life? 
 
Inside this month’s pack, you’ll find:
Mountain anatomy posters (base, peak, slope, valley, etc.)
Mountain types + formation posters
Geography + mountain ecosystem flashcards
Hands-on STEM activity inspired by mountain formations and erosion
Group ART - it’s time for rock painting! 
Lapbooking
Poetry teatime
Your very own personal mountain ecosystem build
Mountain themed recipes for hiking and indoors! 
 In this month’s study, kids will discover how mountains rise and erode over time, what makes each type unique, and how elevation shapes temperature, habitats, and weather. We take a gentle look at mountain ecosystems—from hardy evergreens to wildlife that thrives in cold, high places—helping children appreciate the beauty and stability mountains bring to the world.
