Groundhog Day is a yearly tradition held on February 2nd, where a groundhog named Punxsutawney Phil predicts how long winter will last. Celebrate February 2nd with this creative and interactive pack!
There are three main activities:
Vocabulary:
Introduce the five vocabulary words with the real-life photo posters included. You could post these posters around the classroom and have students travel around to match up and define the words in their flip flaps or use them as a center activity. These posters are excellent for a bulletin board display too.
Reading:
Have students read the informational articles about groundhogs and Groundhog Day with questions and scenes for students to connect and color. Students then complete the Groundhog Day Organizer. You could have students work with a partner or in small groups. It could also be used as a center or learning station activity.
Hands-on Activities:
Have students complete the Groundhog Day Flip-Up booklet and/or build it page by page. I usually have them do one page at each center or learning station. They can use the articles as a reference source to help them complete the booklet's pages. Lastly, they cut, color, and assemble the booklet. Flip-Up books can be glued or stapled inside their interactive notebooks, file folder, or 12x18 piece of construction paper folded like a book cover. They could also decorate the outside of the folder with colorful groundhog images.
Happy Groundhog Day!
