We had polar animal adventure day in first grade last week. Polar animal adventure day is a theme day we have as a culminating activity for your polar animal unit. We set up six stations and rotated the first graders through them. Each station was about 15 minutes long. Here are the stations we had.
Last week we continued our polar animal study. We learned about cetaceans (whales and dolphins), focusing on the orca, beluga and narwhal. My kids had a “whale” of a time with this! They learned so much about their adaptations.
Happy weekend! It’s an especially wonderful for me because it’s a three-day weekend. I think all weekends should be three days. I am linking up with with Kacey over at Doodle Bugs Teaching.
