Comments on: Penguins Only in Antarctica? It’s Not So Black and White! /websites/expertvoices/archives/1341 This blog is focused on helping elementary teachers become more knowledgeable about the polar regions and providing best practices on how to integrate polar concepts into their teaching. Ideas for connecting science and literacy through literature and writing, exemplary science activities, incredible pictures, tales of adventure, and stories of indigenous people and amazing animals will be part of each posting.

I am searching and adding things to make the unit more user friendly for my 1st graders. I love some of your things! I plan on adding the oil spill, the literature connections with journal and etc.. I'll probably use more as I do more work on this over the break! Thank you! I teach 1st grade this year and am doing a penguin unit that I originally wrote for 2nd grade after Christmas break.
