Groundhog’s Day is celebrated by millions of Americans and Canadians every year on February 2nd. This special day follows a tradition that is centuries old where a groundhog’s shadow determines if winter will continue for the next few weeks or not.
In order to make the holiday not only fun but educational here are a free set of worksheets with color-by-code activities.
This is a 3-page freebie that is jammed-pack with learning strategies. Little ones will be able to practice sight word recognition, number recognition, and simple addition and subtraction skills.
While the sight word and number recognition pages are perfect for younger learners (preschool to kindergarten) the math page is mixed equations and may be better suited for students starting at the first-grade level.
What’s Included:
- 1-mixed math addition and subtraction page
- 1-color by sight word page
- 1 color by number page
How to Use:
- Download and print the printable [link below].
- Grab some markers, colored pencils, or crayons.
- Let students color the pages by correctly using the color code as their guide.
Other Ways to Celebrate:
Early in the morning, you can watch a local news broadcast where most show a groundhog and check for their shadow which will tell you whether we will be having six more weeks of winter or not.
Then, you can learn more about groundhogs with a little groundhog trivia you can find online, try reading a book about groundhog’s day, or a great idea for real adventurers is to wake up at dawn to find a burrow and see if you can catch a groundhog coming out as a family.
I suggest trying to find a burrow prior to the holiday so you can know where to look ahead of time. You may get lucky.
