February 2nd is Groundhog Day: Hundreds of Things to Do

We all know that the Super Bowl is this Sunday, but it also Groundhog Day. This post is probably just for K-6 teachers and will be added to the holiday collection of resources here. I will be adding to that mega list whenever a holiday pops up on the calendar. How's the weather where you are? In New Jersey, we are experiencing the coldest temps in twenty plus years. That's why I am sure that the groundhog will see his shadow and retreat, giving us a longer winter. Here's a list of cool lessons and activities for Groundhog Day.
