Arctic Food Chain- I couldn't find what I was looking for browsing the Internet, so we created our own. Using clip art images online, we created a simple version of the Arctic food chain.
Tyler also completed some copy work and we labeled the Continents were you can find penguins-- did you know that not all penguins live in Antarctica?! Many penguins actually live in warmer climates!
At the end of the book Penguins! by National Geographic Kids, they included pictures of all 17 penguins and their height measurements, so we marked the Emperor penguin (tallest), the Fairy penguin (shortest) and a few others on the wall with painter's tape to see how Tyler measured up and if a Emperor penguin was around, Tyler would be looking him straight in the eye!

Sea World's Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin stopped into town! We were able to see a couple of Magellanic penguins up close!
Wow! Everything looks wonderful. How cool to have a field trip to see penguins! I will be sharing this post on the Read.Explore.Learn. Facebook page and Pinterest board.
