What\ndifferent activities do you do in the\nday versus the night?<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\tAs a group, brainstorm ways that students can adapt to daily and seasonal changes. Note that these changes could be because of day, night, spring, summer, fall, or winter. Have students choose one or two ideas and draw a picture or make a clay model. Alternatively, students could use dolls, figurines, and clothing to demonstrate their ideas.<br>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t<ul>\n\t\t\t<li>In small groups, have students think of some of the ways that daily and seasonal changes affect other living things and consider how people might help those living things adapt to the changes. For example, to help birds in winter where there aren&#8217;t many plants to eat, we can put out birdseed; to help frogs have a safe place to lay their eggs in spring, we can pick up litter and keep ponds clean of garbage; to help flowers grow in spring and summer, we can make sure we don&#8217;t step on them, pick them, or damage their leaves. In their groups, have students come up with a \u201cWe can\u2026\u201d statement to share with the class. <\/li>\n\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time: approximately 20\u201325 minutes Grouping: whole class, partners, and small groups What Did We Learn?
