Designed for curious minds in Kindergarten through Grade 3 (ages 4-9), this bundle transforms the science shelf into an interactive discovery zone. Each of the three jam-packed units is filled with photographs, hands-on activities, and engaging challenges that bring the magic of winter animal survival right into your Montessori or homeschool classroom.
What’s Inside the Adventure?
1. Winter Animal Habitats Vocabulary Cards – “Meet the Survivors!”
Jump right in and meet 30 amazing animals! From the deep-sleeping bear to the long-flying goose, this set sorts animals into three super-teams: the Hibernators, the Adaptors, and the Migrators. Perfect for launching your winter science exploration!
2. The Great Sleep: Hibernation & Dormancy Unit – “Secret Hideouts & Deep Sleepers!”
Discover the cozy, hidden world of winter sleepers! Students won’t just learn about hibernation—they’ll become experts on brumation, torpor, and diapause. Match animals like frogs and snakes to their secret shelters (hibernacula!), learn about the only hibernating bird, and test their knowledge with fun “Fact or Fiction?” challenges.
3. Masters of Disguise: Animal Adaptations Unit – “Winter’s Invisible Heroes!”
Uncover the clever tricks animals use to conquer the cold! How does a snowshoe hare become a ghost in the snow? How does a penguin stay warm in a frozen ocean? Through beautiful 3-part cards and research projects, students explore incredible traits like camouflage and fat storage that make these animals winter champions.
4. Epic Journeys: Animal Migration Unit – “The Great Animal Voyages!”
Embark on a global adventure without leaving the classroom! Trace the incredible routes of the monarch butterfly, arctic tern, and caribou. This unit makes the abstract concept of migration tangible with pin-punching map activities, cause-and-effect matching, and stories of journeys that span continents and oceans.
