We are knee-deep in a penguin study in my classroom. We've studied arctic animals in the winter before, but never penguins. This year, I wanted to try something new, and.....I mean, penguins.
They are so cute. So sweet. So lovable!
My students are officially in love and obsessed. My heart pitter-patters when I hear them use the words rookery, predator, or even regurgitate (that one's a favorite!) in conversation with their friends.
They talk about the different types of penguins like they are family! Emperor, Adelie, Macaroni, Crested, Rockhopper, Little Blue.... so cute and so fun!
I wanted an addition practice page for my students, and I knew that if I included penguins they would be suddenly motivated. And goldfish crackers? Done deal.
Students rolled two dice and used goldfish crackers to build the groups. Then, they recorded their addition sentences on the recording sheet. Simple, but fun! My class loved it today!
These cutie pie penguins came from Deanna Jump's Penguin pack. I laminated them with my new at-home laminator of course because I am in.love.with.it.

Happy weekend, friends!!
Love, love, love! All around LOVE.
