Looking for an engaging winter science lesson? How about a blubber mitt? It’s a great way to explore many subjects: thermodynamics, animal adaptation, insulating properties, density, and perception, to name just a few.
If you’re teaching animal adaptation, your students may also be interested in this Top Ten Hibernators list, from cold-blooded animals such as frogs to mammals like prairie dogs.
Enjoy!
