Montessori-inspired Reptile Activities for Kids with Free Printables

Reptiles are a popular topic at our house.  Dinomite is and always has been madly in love with them.  I can't tell you how many episodes of Snake Master and Jeff Corwin I have watched with him over the years.  Dinomite is quite the expert.

Perhaps that's why you've never seen a reptiles unit study from us.  It's quite a challenge to come up with activities and printables that teach Dinomite something new and/or pass his inspection process.  

That is until now!

You see, instead of trying to impress Dinomite, I asked him to help me create the Montessori-inspired Reptiles Printable Pack Bundle.  And boy oh boy did he deliver!  Check out these fabulous Montessori-inspired Reptile Activities for Kids with Free Printables!

He researched.  He searched through and picked out the perfect images with me.  He explained the difference between concepts that I have never heard before let alone thought I could ever understand.  And in the end he helped me create a printable pack like you've never seen before.

It's so big, this post only covers half of it. This is just part one!

Montessori-inspired Reptiles Printable Pack Bundle Part One

I've divided the Montessori-inspired Reptiles Printable Pack Bundle up into two posts.  This post covers printables best suited for preschool children.  The next post covers the best activities for elementary students.

Montessori-inspired Reptiles Printable Pack Bundle

Mind you all printables can be used interchangeably depending on how you decide to use them. They are very versatile.

Montessori-inspired Reptile Activities for Preschoolers


Reptile Eye Match Up


Reptile Eye Match Up

Reptiles have some of the most fascinating eyes in the animal kingdom.  They are so unique.  In this activity students match up eyes with reptiles.  Both sets of cards are labeled as a control.

Reptiles Eye Match Up Activity with Printable

Sunshine absolutely loved the reptile eye match up activity.  I added a magnifying glass for her to use with the reptile pictures so she could compare eyes more closely.  She would not part with that thing.  Lol.

My Book of Snake Colors


My Book of Snake Colors Activity and Printable

Now I need to confess I'm not a big snake person.  I'm extra sensitive to those who may find snakes frightening or repulsive in any way.  This activity was designed specifically for those who may be hesitant to learn about snakes.

It takes the scary aspects of snakes away and introduces children to their natural beauty.  Who knew there were so many beautiful snakes out there?

My Book of Snake Colors Activity

Like me, Sunshine is not a snake person.  It only took looking through the control book to get her excited about them. She wanted to know what kind of snake was on each page and thoroughly enjoyed drawing her own snakes and labeling their colors.

Chameleon Insect Addition Clip Cards


Chameleon Insect Addition Clip Cards

In my opinion chameleons are some of the most beautiful lizards out there, that is except for when they eat.  Lol.  Their tongue is so long.  And they eat insects!  Yuck!  At least those are my thoughts.

My kids on the other hand think it is incredibly cool that chameleons eat their food the way they do.  We just had to have some type of activity that incorporated this fun fact.  And so here it is!

In this activity kids will use insects as counters to solve addition problems.  They will then use the glass beads to mark the answer on each clip card.

Chameleon Insect Addition Clip Cards Activity

Sunshine had so much fun with this activity.  The insect figures were a huge draw for her.  She did such a fantastic job laying them out in an organized way, counting them as she went.

Baby Sea Turtle Subtraction


Baby Sea Turtle Subtraction Activity

Also included in this printable pack is a set of baby sea turtle subtraction cards.  Sunshine didn't do this activity as we were still waiting for our baby turtles to arrive from Amazon.

Pin Poking Reptile Outlines


Pin Poking Reptile Outlines

There is a variety of reptile outlines included in the Montessori-inspired Reptiles Printable Pack Bundle in two different sizes to meet the individual needs of your students.

My initial plan with these outlines was to have my older students use them as art templates, designing their own reptile species and then writing about them.  For my younger students the outlines work perfect for pin poking activities!

Reptile Pin Poking Activity with Printable

Sunshine had never used our pin poking materials until I introduced this activity to her.  I could not believe her concentration. She was determined to complete the entire activity in one setting and she did!  

Reptile Continent Sort


Reptile Continent Sort

All of our animal printable pack bundles include continent sorting cards.  The reptile bundle is no exception.  Each reptile card designed for this activity includes the name of a reptile and the continent it is from.

The continent cards are included in the Montessori-inspired Continents and Oceans Printable Pack Bundle.

Reptile Continent Sorting Activity and Printable

Sunshine loves geography and has known her continents for quite some time.  We did a quick review of their names and colors, as it had been a while, and she was set to go.  She did such a fantastic job reading the names of the continents on the animal cards as she matched them up with their corresponding continent. 

I loved at the end of the activity when she observed that the Antarctica card had no animal cards underneath it.  She very confidently shared that this was because it was too cold there for reptiles.  You can tell her big brother has been giving her a few reptile lessons on his own.  Lol.

Singular vs. Plural Reptile Vocabulary


Singular vs. Plural Reptile Vocabulary

This activity is very versatile depending on your students' needs.  It includes one set of singular noun reptile cards and one set of plural noun reptile cards.  All of the cards follow the rule of adding "s" to the end of the word.

Singular vs. Plural Noun Reptile Match Up Activity with Printable

I set up this activity using the "s" from our moveable alphabet and the noun grammar symbol.  Singular noun reptile cards were layed out on the left side of Sunshine.  Plural cards were layed out on the right side.  

Sunshine selected a singular noun reptile card and then looked to find the matching plural card.  She would compare the cards once together and point out the "s" in the plural noun cards.

I was so excited that she grasped the concept being presented. And even if she hadn't, matching up reptile cards that showed only one species and one that showed more than one was a great learning activity.

As you can see there are so many fantastic reptile activities included in this bundle.

And of course we can't stop there!

Montessori-inspired Fish Activities for Kids with Free Printable

I was raised around fish my entire life.  Our family owned and operated a marina. At home I had at least three large fish tanks in my bedroom at a time. There was one point where I actually worked at our family owned bait shop.  But still there is so much I didn't know about fish.

In the Montessori curriculum a child learns the parts of the fish and at times the life cycle of a fish but not much else. Sure there may be a shark unit or an ocean study, but when it comes to really learning about fish there are so few resources.  We want to change that.

The Montessori-inspired Fish Printable Pack Bundle includes four beautifully designed activities to encourage children to learn more about fish.

Montessori-inspired Fish Printable Pack Bundle with Free Bonus Printable

The Montessori-inspired Fish Printable Pack Bundle is a 22 page resource designed for  children in Montessori preschool and elementary classrooms.  It can be used in a variety of ways depending on the needs of your students.

Montessori-inspired Fish Printable Pack Bundle

Fish Activities for Kids with Free Printable


Fresh Water vs. Salt Water Fish


Fresh Water vs. Salt Water Fish Printable

This activity introduces the idea that there are two types of water environments: fresh water and salt water.  Within these types of water environments there are cold and warm areas where fish live.

Children can choose to match water cards with descriptions.  They can sort fish by water environment.  One could even study each water environment separately and turn the fish cards into nomenclature cards. It all depends on the needs of your students.

Fish vs. Other Water Creatures


Fish vs. Other Water Creatures Printable

For a little one, it can be pretty hard to understand that not all water creatures are fish.  Sunshine is trying to understand this for herself right now.  

In this activity children sort fish and other water creatures as shown above.  If you wanted to add a little more hands on fun you could use marine animal figures with the cards.

If you're just looking to teach children about a variety of fish, you can easily turn the fish cards into nomenclature cards.

Who Am I? Fish Cards


Who Am I? Fish Cards

My boys absolutely LOVE Who Am I? cards.  They have so much fun trying to match up animals to descriptions.  If I'm being completely honest, they're better than I am at it.  Lol.

Included in the fish bundle are eleven Who Am I? Fish Cards for fun and entertainment.  They include descriptions of a variety of fish.

Once again, you can turn picture cards into nomenclature cards quite easily.

Fish Danger  Match Up (and Sort)


Fish Danger Match Up

Fish, just like other animals, have ways to protect themselves from harm and/or catch their food. This activity explores fish that are venomous, and those that use electricity, teeth, and size to ward off dangers and catch their meals.  

Description cards also include a section about whether or not each fish is dangerous to humans or just other fish around them.

Picture and/or description cards can be used for sorting or a match up activity.

The Montessori-inspired Fish Printable Pack Bundle is one of our smallest animal resources but that doesn't mean it's not jammed packed with incredible printables that are well researched and true to life images.  Fish are mysterious creatures. There is still so much we don't know about them.

Montessori-inspired Layers of the Ocean Fish Sort (Free Bonus Printable)

You may have noticed that the Montessori-inspired Fish Printable Pack Bundle does not include a layers of the ocean activity.  This is because we're giving it away as a Subscriber's Only Bonus Freebie!

Montessori-inspired Layers of the Ocean Fish Sort (Bonus Freebie)

This printable is the perfect resource when teaching children about the layers of the ocean.  You receive a colored layer card, layer description card, and images of fish that live that live in each layer of the ocean.

Specific fish species in the darkest  and coldest levels of the ocean are depicted in drawings as there are no images of these species in their natural habitats.

Layers of the Ocean Fish Sorting Activity (Free Printable)

Just like other activities, this one is very versatile depending on the needs of your students.  You could even add Montessori color tablets to the activity if you have them available.

It's Time to Have a Serious Talk About the Realities of Autism

It seems that autism has become a hot topic as of late.

There are sides and you MUST choose which side you're on.

People argue and are offended easily.

It seems that no matter who you are and what you do, your attempts to do what's right when autism is concerned will be met with criticism from at least one person.

As much as I've wanted to avoid this, it's time to have a serious talk about the realities of autism.

It's time to have a serious talk about the realities of autism

It's Time to Have a Serious Talk About the Realities of Autism


Over the last six months I have experienced first hand the criticism that has come as I've shared my views about autism.

I guess in some ways I should be excited about this.  There was a time when no one understood autism.

Now the diagnosis is commonplace.  

Every "expert" has an opinion on the "right" way to do things. 

Every caregiver of a child with autism has found what works for them and doesn't hesitate to share that knowledge with others.

For the first time so many who were diagnosed as children are sharing their experiences as adults.  With those first hand accounts has come so much information.

Then there are those who are now aware of what autism is and are seeking out diagnoses as adults.

With all that's going on in regards to autism, I find it time to define exactly where our family stands on these issues and how we will be moving forward with discussions on the blog.

Autistic or a Person with Autism


Four people in our home have been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.  

My husband, who was diagnosed as an adult, prefers to be called a person with autism on the rare occasion that the topic of his diagnosis comes up in conversation.  If the topic doesn't come up, he prefers Jason, as he is not just a diagnosis, but so much more.

My three children, Dinomite, Bulldozer, and Sunshine prefer to be called autistic.  They choose when they'd like to bring up the diagnosis in conversation, unless a situation requires it. If a situation requires the mention of it, I always ask them first if it's okay to share. 

Jason, Dinomite, Bulldozer and Sunshine are the ones who have been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.  I respect their varying language preferences when I am with them.

In my writing I use both language forms out of respect for each member of my family.  These language uses will continue to be used interchangeably.  

If I am around someone else with the diagnosis, I will always ask their preference.

Our family's opinion is that how you address a person diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder should always be based on what the person with the diagnosis prefers.  

When in doubt ask!

Every person is different.

Neurodiverse or Special Needs


Neurodiverse is yet another term used by the autistic community.  

Neurodiversity is defined by dictionary.com as:

"The variation and differences in neurological structure and function that exist among human beings, especially when viewed as being normal and natural rather than pathological; recognizing autism as an example of neurodiversity."

Our family supports and promotes the use of this terminology when referring to the autistic community, however no one in our home prefers being called neurodiverse over being called autistic or one with autism.

My children are proud of their autism and see no reason to call it anything else but what it is.

My husband feels the word neurodiverse is just too long.

We don't use this term in our home and probably won't use it very much when writing either.

Special needs is a popular term in our world today but seems to rub those diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder the wrong way.  They often feel that it is a negative term.

When I am referring to all four or my children or family in general I use the term special needs. Between the six of us we have multiple diagnoses that do not just fall into the category of neurodiversity or autism.

This term in no way is meant to be derogatory.  The only reason I use the term special needs it is that I can't think of another reference that encompasses all of the diagnoses our family has.  And there are a lot of diagnoses.

With that said, I feel that everyone has something.  We just don't know that because people are afraid to talk about it.

I believe we all have special needs.  

This is what makes us all unique and original.

There is no shame in needing accommodations to be the best we can possibly be.  

Everybody's brains and bodies work differently.  

Individual accommodations should be the norm, not the exception.

Special needs is not a bad word in our home because everyone has them and is proud of them.

Special needs will continue to be my go to term as I speak and write about our family experiences. This will also be true when speaking about a child with multiple diagnoses.

Autism Awareness or Autism Acceptance


Long gone are the days when the majority of the population doesn't know what autism is.  Most people know someone who has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.

The unfortunate thing is that autism receives far more negative attention than positive.

That's where things need to change.

Accepting autism isn't enough, especially when it means that certain organizations promote finding a cure and fixing what they think is broken, with no respect for the individual diagnosed.

Talking about the diagnostic criteria of autism and wearing blue one month a year doesn't do anything for the autistic person looking for a friend or a job to support their family.

Before you do choose to wear blue or promote the puzzle piece symbol, please look into what these things mean and how the autistic community views them.

Autism Awareness has long been an expired term and is considered offensive by the autistic community.  

They want to be accepted.

They want to feel loved.

They want to be celebrated for how amazing and wonderful they are because of their diagnosis, not despite it.

This is also how our family feels.

When our boys were diagnosed years ago, my husband spoke so profoundly,

Autism Quote

"Instead of making them work for the world, let's make the world work for them."

This has been our family motto for years now and I feel it encompasses the acceptance and celebration that autism deserves.

We do not wear blue or celebrate autism awareness.

We do not celebrate organizations that look for a cure.  

We do not support the puzzle piece symbol.

We will wear #redinstead or any other color or pattern to support our love and acceptance of autism.

We will enjoy celebrating neurodiversity and autism acceptance.

We will show off how amazingly awesome and unique the autistic people in our life are by bragging about their accomplishments, passions, and brilliance.

Both positive and negative experiences regarding our family's opinions and experiences will be shared on the blog.

ABA or No ABA


ABA stands for Applied Behavioral Analysis.  It is a behavioral therapy used to change undesired behaviors of those with autism.  When a young child is first diagnosed it is not uncommon for a doctor to recommend this therapy for up to 40 hours a week.

When Jason and I were first introduced to the world of autism (when our boys were diagnosed) we sought out any and all helpful resources that could help us understand our boys and help them be the best that they could be.

Dinomite and Bulldozer received occupational therapy.  Bulldozer also received speech and physical therapy.

Jason and I took parenting courses offered by the hospital where our children were diagnosed.  Through these courses we learned several types of behavioral techniques one of which was ABA.

Our boys attended a private special needs preschool.  Dinomite was in an inclusive classroom.  Bulldozer was placed in the autism classroom.  The school recommended that we meet with an ABA specialist at home to help Bulldozer.

At that point, I already had my own opinions about ABA. It was my least favorite behavioral approach. I couldn't get over treating my child like a dog.  

But we met with the woman because it was recommended and we wanted to do ALL we could to help our kiddos.

It only took two meetings to realize this was NOT for us.  We disagreed with the method entirely and felt it harmful to our children.

With that said, I want to make it perfectly clear that we do believe in analyzing behaviors.  We've found that analyzing and understanding our children's behaviors helps so much in helping them be the best they can be.

When we better understand our children's responses to the world around them we can help them feel safe and provide the sensory input they need.  Once we can do those two things we can help them learn how to communicate their needs and then meet them.

It's the approach to changing the behaviors that we heavily disagree with when it comes to ABA.  Some autistic adults who have gone through ABA therapy call it downright abusive.

One of my biggest pet peeves about ABA is that it in my opinion, it in no way helps an autistic child mature to an independent adult.  

A child needs to find their own internal motivation to become the best they can be.  They need to learn that they are loved and okay just the way they are, with no need to change themselves to be accepted. By following the child's lead we can help them become successful and independent.

ABA tends to be the opposite approach.

Now fast forward a few years to Sunshine.  One of the recommended therapies for Sunshine after her psych ward inpatient stay last summer was home based ABA therapy.  It only took two meetings before I asked the therapist not to return.  

However, at her day program, Sunshine is placed in an autism ABA focused classroom.  The principal felt that this classroom would be the best fit for her as opposed to other classrooms where children only had behavioral issues due to trauma and mental illness.  We supported this decision.

There are times when there is no perfect solution and you must choose what's best in the moment for everyone involved.

We are very thankful that Sunshine has fantastic teachers who listen and communicate with us about behaviors and approaches they use in class.  

After Sunshine spent a year in an ABA classroom, we were able to push for a change to a self-regulation based approach.  We are so grateful to be rid of ABA and to make a change within the system.

At home, Sunshine knows we do not use an ABA approach.

Our in-home mental health therapist was very supportive of this decision as she spent several hours in our home each week observing and working with Sunshine for several months last year.  

So do we support ABA? No!

Do we realize that changes to approaches in schools take time? Yes

Autism: Positive or Negative


As you can see, our views about autism are not always black and white.  We have our personal opinions and advocate for them as best we can.

When our children were diagnosed, I grieved.  The grief came from a negative conotation with the word autism that I had been taught.  I had a lack of understanding of how amazing my world would become because of autism.

I felt despair and sorrow about my children's behaviors before and right after diagnosis.  My husband and I did not know how to help them and were overwhelmed by all of the advice from therapists and professionals.

It wasn't until I let go of what "should" be happening and what I "should" be doing that I found joy and happiness.

Autism is not bad.

Our family loves and supports the autistic community and have no desire to change anyone.

One of my sisters works at a hospital evaluating children and adults in mental health emergencies, advocating for their rights.  

My other sister is a special education teacher and trained in ABA.  Before that she spent years as a one-to-one aid.  

Sunshine's grandmother is a speech pathologist and works in a day program just like the one Sunshine attends helping autistic children communicate in as many ways as they can.

My autistic husband and I are happily married and are raising four special needs children, three of whom have autism.  

During the school year we teach other children who are neurodiverse.

Yes, life with autism is hard sometimes.

But life is also hard without autism sometimes.  

Everyone has their own personal challenges.  

I'm not autistic and I struggle with some things far more than my husband does.  

Perspective is everything.

So many of my husband's "quirks" are reasons I fell in love with him and why I still love him.  He is magnificient.

I can't imagine life with a neurotypical child.  I wouldn't know what to do with myself.  It would be so boring and absent of so much joy and learning.  

My autistic children are amazing and teach me so many new things each and every day.

So please know I will stand up for and advocate for the autistic community any time the ocassion arises.  

Their strengths and weaknesses may be different than those who are neurotypical, but we all have strengths and weaknesses.

I certainly wouldn't appreciate so much effort and focus being spent to correct things others think are wrong with me, as has happend with those who have autism.

Let's change or focus to positive!
