Hibernating Hedgehog

We have been learning all about nocturnal animals. We learned that during the winter when there is less food and the weather gets cold hedgehogs find a warm and sheltered place to rest. This is called hibernation.

We painted our own pictures of hedgehogs. img_10091 img_10101 img_10111 img_10121

 

When we returned to school after the long weekend we couldn’t find one of our hedgehogs! We looked all over the classroom for it. We then remembered all about hibernation. One of our hedgehogs had crawled under the desk and found a box to rest in!
