We ended our penguin unit by turning our classroom into Antarctica and acting out penguin life as penguin families! We had made penguin puppets a couple days before to reinforce the physical characteristics of penguins, and why they need each of their body parts. We used our puppets to slide on ice, dive into water for fish, and care for our eggs.
Stanford Trees were so careful and deliberate about not letting their eggs touch the ice, and keeping them safe on their feet and on their brood pouch. We were so surprised when halfway through caring for our eggs, they hatched!!! Stanford Trees marveled at their fuzzy chicks with downy feathers. We had a great time!
