Bear or Not a Bear?!
Bears are the most popular animal we know to hibernate! The students had to classify and identify the difference between bears and other animals. They had to use vocabulary to describe each bear. We learned that all bears do not look alike! Some bears have different color fur, like a polar bear is white and a grizzly bear is brown. We notices that some bears do not eat the same type of foods, like panda bears eat bamboo and black bears eat fish.
Small Group
We also colored our own hibernation books! Each page was a different animal that hibernates. We had to identify and name what type of area the animal hibernates in. For example, frogs hibernated in the mud, groundhogs hibernate in a borrow. The locations of where each animal hibernates supports the domain of vocabulary under the CT ELDS of language and literacy.
We have lots of availability for parents, grandparents, or a special family member to come read! Please click on button below.
