During this time you can help collect data about a dozen different migrations and signs of spring. Students share their own field observations with classrooms across the Hemisphere and are linked with scientists who provide their expertise directly to the classroom. The investigations of natural events and cycles help you to incorporate inquiry based teaching and learning and can be used at all grade levels. Since the project begins on Groundhog Day each year a fun and interesting activity for all grades is to research the history and background of Groundhog Day. At first the students might look at you like you've now definitely lost your mind but as they begin researching it is amazing what they can learn about history and tradition.
