With the winter we have been having I don't blame some of these animals for going south.... Maybe we can tag along? :)

Migration Station!
Through our animal unit, we have talked about how winter affects animals. We read a book called 'Animals in Winter' that describes the 4 ways animals survive in this cold season: migrate, hibernate, store food, or hunt. As a follow up on the concept of migration your students watched a BrainPopJr movie on migration, then cut out one animal who migrates to use as a puppet in our display of migration. We then took a floor map (we had to add the compass rose as one student notedly pointed out) and acted out how various animals migrate south for the winter.

What a fun, hands on way to talk about migration. Love that the kids noticed a compass rose was needed!
