Show Notes
When events only happen once every few years, or in this case every four years, it creates a unique opportunity to learn about and celebrate it in your classroom. This February we’ll have Leap Year, so we wanted to take advantage of that and created some fun ways to celebrate this rare occasion. In today’s episode, we’re sharing a few elementary Leap Year activities that engage your students while putting an emphasis on learning targets.
