We had such a fun time learning about penguins and polar bears last week. On Friday, we had a “Penguin Party.” Students dressed up in black and white. We made hats and my awesome room mom made these cutie pie treats for us to enjoy that afternoon. For morning snack we ate goldfish…because penguins eat fish, duh! HAHA!! We learned how to waddle like it’s hot. I told the kids that they needed to sleep standing up that night too because that is what a penguin does. I wonder how that went over at home. Hmmm….
Here are a few pics and the sheet I made for our blubber experiement. It was so much fun. We made a chart before doing it. We came up with our hypothesis and each signed our names to what we thought the answer would be.
Penguin Day = FUN! Try it people. Waddle like it’s hot. (get it…drop it like it’s hot…old Snoop Dog song from a longgggg time ago. And, no I am not a rapper so don’t ask me to do it for you, haha!)
I am STILLLLL working on my Penguins and Polar Bears Unit for you and I promise it will be posted this week. I hope to get that and 100th day knocked out by the weekend. I would have it done tonight but I am being forced get to go with my husband to a chamber banquet. Don’t Be jealous! Have a great week friends. Three more days to go. YOU CAN DO THIS!!! Here are some pics….

Oops! I should have put that! I'm not sure where my pic of our chart went either. Anywho, we used crisco in between two ziplock bags (or you can use the clear thin plastic gloves). Easy peasy!

I consider you’ve created some genuinely exciting points. Not too most people would in reality consider about this the way you simply did. I’m really impressed that there’s a lot about this topic that’s been uncovered and you also did it so tremendously, with a lot class.
