This story of Ten Grouchy Groundhogs introduces children to Groundhog's Day in a fun and engaging way. These ten groundhogs get into trouble in their hole and one by one they leave due to various reasons. When the last groundhog is left he goes out to see where all of his friends have gone. Out of their hole the groundhogs see their shadows and run back inside.
This activity kit provides printables to create your own groundhog puppets from the book. You can glue them to popsicle sticks or attach velcro to act out on a felt board. Also provided is the quotes from each groundhog to match to each character. The second activity in the kit includes the descriptive vocabulary used in the story. Print the words and pictures and have students match the vocabulary word to the picture.
At the end of the kit is some suggestions for activities to do as extensions to this book which include acting it out and a shared writing activity.
