Animal Tracks

The Yeladim pressed the animals into the snow dough making animal foot prints in the 'snow.' Then we would close our eyes and guess who's footprints they were. The Yeladim noticed the penguin had a very different kind of print and when we looked closely noticed the penguin has webbed feet as opposed to the other animals who have paws.

Zev asked if we could include the other farm animals from our classroom in the snow dough. That's when we analyzed what all of these animals we have out now have in common. 'Fur.' That's why these animals like to stay out in the cold but the farm animals who have soft skin or feathers like to be warm in the winter. Zev said "Polar Bears like ice."
