Hibernating Animals!

We "hibernated" our animals in our classroom cave last Friday.  This was a fun way to help the kids to understand the concept of hibernation.  We talked about different animals that hibernate, why they hibernate in the winter, what they do when they hibernate, and sang songs about hibernation.  Since yesterday was Groundhog Day, we decided to let our animals come out of hibernation.  We also talked about Groundhog Day, watched a short video on it, and sang songs about it.  We had a fun day of learning!
