Winter is Cold - Action Poem
Winter is cold (hug yourself and shiver)
There is snow in the sky. (flutter fingers above your head)
The squirrel gathers nuts (pretend to gather nuts)
And the wild geese fly. (flap arms)
The fluffy red fox (cup hands over head to form ears)
Has his fur to keep warm. (stroke arms as if stroking fur)
The bear's in her cave (form a cave shape with your arms)
Sleeping all through the storm. (fold hands under cheek and pretend to sleep)
Winter is Cold
Winter is cold,There is snow in the sky. The squirrel gathers nuts And the wild geese fly.
The fluffy red fox Has his fur to keep warm.
The bear is in his cave Sleeping all through the storm.
Hibernation
Hibernation is different from
sleep. With normal sleep, the animal moves a little, has
an active brain, and can wake up
very quickly.
In the late summer and fall, before
going into
hibernation, animals eat a lot of food. Their bodies are able to live off the stored body
fat. They look for a safe place to
spend the winter (caves, dens,
burrows).
Some hibernating animals wake up
and move around, have a snack and then go back into hibernation again.
