“How to Survive as a Firefly” FREE Book Activities!

*This post contains affiliate links.


Earlier this month, I received a copy of the new book How to Survive as a Firefly, written by Kristen Foote and illustrated by Erica Salcedo.  This book teaches about the life cycle of a firefly in an engaging and humorous fashion.  I even learned a lot of new and interesting facts about fireflies!

I created a few activities for grades K-1 that are a perfect companion for this book.  If you teach about life cycles, the firefly life cycle is an interesting life cycle to teach.  Even if you don’t have a life cycles unit, children are captivated by fireflies and this book is an enjoyable read.

The free activity pack includes a life cycle crown, a life cycle spinner book, a practice page, and vocabulary cards.  You can download your copy by clicking on the image below!
