Penguin Fun

What a beautiful day it was today! We actually got a little warm during PE time :)

For math time, we played the game Hungry Hungry Penguins. Each student got to roll the dice and put that many fish on their ten frames. When they hit 20 fish they got to say "hungry, hungry penguin" and eat their fish :)

We finished our penguin science projects today. On Monday we talked about that one of the reasons penguins stay warm is because they have blubber. We did a science project to see just how warm blubber can be. Today we learned that the other thing that penguins have to help them keep warm is oil in their feathers. So we put a little Vaseline on our hands and stuck them in cold water to see how it feels.
