Mr. Groundhog

Groundhog Day just happened to fall on a Saturday, but that didn't stop us from having lots of groundhog fun! We watched a video clip of Punxsutawney Phil and his weather prediction. The kids were very excited that Phil did not see his shadow! We also learned several interesting facts about groundhogs...did you know that groundhogs are also called whistle pigs???? To end our groundhog fun, the students created a groundhog burrow and used specific details to describe it. I would definitely like to spend the winter in some of these burrows...televisions, comfy beds, trampolines. These groundhogs have it all:)
