Last week a special visitor came to PreK to teach us about animals in the winter. Some animals hibernate, some adapt, and some migrate. We got to look at skulls, scat, and puppets, while learning new information. We pretended to be polar bears by placing our hands in ice water while in a “blubber” filled bag. It helped to keep us warm! So fun!
