Penguin Tips
 *This
project should be
completed during February so that materials can be gathered—eggs,
gloves,
mittens, and stuffed penguins. *Use
containers that have
lids, to limit spills when changing subjects. *Have
stuffed animals for
role playing. *Use
different colored fish
crackers to symbolize different food types. *Have
field trips available
or a guest speaker. *Have
optional activities,
for students who want more choices. *Provide
different shaped
ice trays, to show ice can take different shapes. *Use food
colors in ice, to
show the melting of the ice in the water. *Start
collecting milk
cartons as a class and have them wash them out, then
freeze at home. *Have
students bring
containers to freeze water in. *Provide
other materials
that talk about penguins, books, magazines, newspapers, etc. *Show
students clips from
documentaries and movies, the relevant parts. *Ask parents to send extra clothes, gloves, mittens, stuffed penguins, donation of Tupperware box with lids, provide permission slips for field trips/Guest speaker, and parental help/volunteers. |
