Explore animal hibernation and migration and learn about the animals that use these behavioural adaptations with a printable animal poster pack.
What Animals Hibernate in the Winter? Which Animals Migrate?
Are you trying to plan your Animal Hibernation and Migration Unit? You’re in the right place because we’ve got the tools you need to teach your students about animals that hibernate and migrate.
Engage your students and take them on a journey into the fascinating world of animal survival tactics. In winter, many animals go through incredible changes to adapt and survive the cold weather. Some go on long journeys, while others find a warm place to hide and wait it out. This year, we encourage you to use Teach Starter printables for kids to explore the secrets behind these seasonal habits and see how furry, feathery, and scaly critters can endure the winter months.
Printable Posters on Animals that Migrate and Hibernate
Kick off your unit by displaying these visually appealing posters featuring animals that hibernate and migrate to survive the cold winter months! 🎨📚 This pack features twenty full-colour posters, including ten animals that hibernate and ten animals that migrate during the winter season. These eye-catching visuals are great introductions to various animals with unique behavioural adaptations.
We’ve included a poster for the following animals that migrate and hibernate. You will notice that some featured animals do not go into full hibernation mode and instead choose to enter a state of deep sleep or torpor to make it through the winter. Each poster features a full-colour image and a description of the animals ‘ behavioural adaptation.
