With this group of creatures mind, our students have been busy making birdfeeders to hang in the forest for our wild friends. We searched for pine cones and brought them back to our class to cover with lard and birdseed. Bravo, les amis !
In our small groups, we have been talking about the ways the creatures in our forest prepared for winter. Some have migrated, like birds and butterflies. Others, such as snakes, skunks, raccoons, frogs, turtles, and groundhogs, are hibernating. A third group of animals that includes deer, squirrels, fox, rabbits, and birds will remain active throughout the colder months. The fur of these creatures may change in thickness or colour to become more suitable for the winter. These animals may also need to make different food choices as plants, seeds, and fruit become snow covered and more difficult to find.
