We all know
the importance of teaching children good stewardship of our natural
resources. The fascination that they feel for bears is a perfect
springboard for the study of nature and our interdependence with
the natural world.
The American
Bear Association has published Bear Beat, an activity book
for children, teachers, and parents. The activities above, plus
the other activities on the "For Teachers" page, are taken
from the book. In addition to these, there are 30+ more ideas, activities,
and information pages, including a pictorial calendar of a year
in the life of a bear and a board game that can be copied and made
for your class. To find out how to buy a copy, contact
us.
If you decide
to do a unit on bears with your class, we will be happy to assist
you in any way we can. Check our Links
for Teachers page, for a list of excellent resources and awesome
activities to help your class learn about bears!
