Groundhog Day predictions at Rose Drive

First grade meteorologists at Rose Drive Elementary School tuned in to see the famous meteorologist, Punxsutawney Phil, emerge from his burrow in Pennsylvania to make his annual Groundhog Day proclamation. Unfortunately, he saw his shadow, and declared six more weeks of winter. The students took the lesson a step further by making their very own Punxsutawney Phil meteorologist glasses, complete with their predictions (summer or winter), which were recorded ahead of time and displayed using a prediction graph. Learning was extended even further as students went on to learn all about hibernation. The perfect occasion to tie in so many wonderful new learning opportunities!
