Melanie at Whimsical Ways shared this awesome winter graphing activity that we think would be a hit with your preschoolers.
Supplies You'll Need
- Large poster board
- Plastic animal figurines
Divide your poster board into two sections - "Animals that like snow" and "Animals that do not like snow". As a group, sort the animal figurines into the proper category discussing what you know about each animal's natural habitat, special characteristics, etc. that make them a good candidate for that particular group.
Other considerations...
This could be a fun magnet activity. Instead of using poster board, label a large cookie sheet or inexpensive oil pan and print photos of the animals {attaching a magnet strip to the back of each} for your students to sort.
We think this is a fun science and math activity for your kiddos to tackle this winter. Be sure to visit Whimsical Ways for this and other great early childhood activities!
