Description

Groundhog Gets A Say by Pamela Swallow is a great book to use with any grade level, but I think it’s a great way to get the upper elementary kids engaged! The book is written as a narrative, but is filled with facts about groundhogs as the main character tries to convince everyone that he deserves more than just ONE day of recognition.

We didn't have time to go through all of the activities but what we did use, my students were engaged in. I'll be more prepared next year and fit in a few more! Thank you!
