When the winter climate changes to a cold, snowy, rainy season, what happens to the wildlife? Do most animals hibernate, migrate or change their behavior to survive? Does life stop under frozen ice or does a dynamic world exist in a modified habitat? The Below Zero Activity Guide answers all these questions and more as it takes a close look at life in Canada in the winter.
Designed for educators who want to awaken their learners to an appreciation of the uniqueness of the winter season, plant and wildlife adaptations, habitat and ecological principles, and responsible human actions, the guide offers 46 brand-new activities appropriate for K-12, youth and adult learners.
