Animals in Winter / Hibernation







Winter is cold.There is snow on the ground. People live in the warm houses.

What do animals do?
Some animals sleep all winter. It is very deep sleep called hibernation.
Other animals stay active in winter. It is hard for them to find food.
Some birds fly south for the winter. We called this migration.They go to warmer place to find food.
Other birds stay here all winter. We can help by feeding them.


Time For Hibernation
(Frere Jacques tune)

Are you sleeping, are you sleeping,
Big black bear, big black bear?
Time for hibernation.
What is your location?
In a log, in a lair.
 

 
Are you sleeping, are you sleeping,
Hanging bat, hanging bat?
Time for hibernation.
What is your location?
In a cave is where I'm at.

Are you sleeping, are you sleeping,
Garter snake, garter snake?
Time for hibernation.
What is your location?
In the mud, in a lake.

Are you sleeping, are you sleeping,
Toad and frog, toad and frog?
Time for hibernation.
What is your location?
In a pond, near a log.

Are you sleeping, are you sleeping,
Meadow mouse, meadow mouse?
Time for hibernation.
What is your location?
in a field, near a house.

Are you sleeping, are you sleeping,
Turtle friend, turtle friend?
Time for hibernation.
What is your location?
In the stream, till winter's end!
In the stream, till winter's end!
 

         Animals do many different, amazing things to get through the winter. Some of them "migrate." 

Some animals remain and stay active in the winter. They must adapt to the changing weather. Many make changes in their behavior or bodies. To keep warm, animals may grow new, thicker fur in the fall. On weasels and snowshoe rabbits, the new fur is white to help them hide in the snow. 

Animals may find winter shelter in holes in trees or logs, under rocks or leaves, or underground. Some mice even build tunnels through the snow. To try to stay warm, animals like squirrels and mice may huddle close together. 

Some animals "hibernate" for part or all of the winter. This is a special, very deep sleep. The animal's body temperature drops, and its heartbeat and breathing slow down. It uses very little energy. In the fall, these animals get ready for winter by eating extra food and storing it as body fat. They use this fat for energy while hibernating. Some also store food like nuts or acorns to eat later in the winter. Bears, skunks, chipmunks, and some bats hibernate. 

Cold-blooded animals like fish, frogs, snakes and turtles have no way to keep warm during the winter. Snakes and many other reptiles find shelter in holes or burrows, and spend the winter inactive, or dormant. This is similar to hibernation.

Where does it rain? - Az esőről és a víz körforgásáról angolul



Every day millions of tiny drops of water rise up into the air, from rivers and seas. When lots of these tiny drops of water float in the same part of the sky, they make a cloud. If tiny drops bum into each other, they mix together and become bigger drops. When these drops become heavy enough they fall back to Earth. We call this rain. In the country, rain soaks into the ground. In towns it goes down drains. Eventually the rain runs back into the rivers and seas. It then rises again to the sky to make clouds.



The water cycle:

Somewhere, out there,
The sun shining in a little puddle
Thats just part of something we call,
The Water Cycle.

Water from the little puddle turns to gas,
EVAPORATION

The gas forms into puffy clouds,
CONDENSATION

The clouds get heavy and the rain pours down,
PRECIPITATION
And more puddles on the ground

Oh the water cycle round and round
Vapour goes up and the rain comes down
Water in the sky, in the ocean, in the ground
Its all in a cycle going round and round.

Some clouds look like a horses tail, thats cirrus (cirrus!)
Some clouds look like cauliflower, thats cumulus (cumulus!)
Some clouds look like a blanket of grey, thats stratus (stratus!)

They are high clouds, low clouds, and in between clouds
Fog on the ground is also rarely seen clouds

Yeah Yeah Yeah
Oh the water cycle round and round
Vapour goes up and the rain comes down
Water in a river, in a glass, in a cloud,
Its all in a cycle going round and round.

When warm air meets cold air trouble brews
That could mean a storm and thats bad news,
A hurricane can form when that happens near warm water
Look out if that storm reaches land.
Get out of the way, grab your sons and daughters.

Crash!

Bash!

Boom!

And Kabam
Oh no! We forgot uncle...

Dan

Im ok, Im alright, I was just hiding in the garbage can.
He was hiding in the garbage can

Oh the water cycle round and round
Vapour goes up and the rain comes down
Water in a person, in a well deep down,
Its all in a cycle going round and round.







Evaporation: Evaporation is when the sun heats up water in rivers or lakes or the ocean and turns it into vapor or steam. The water vapor or steam leaves the river, lake or ocean and goes into the air. 

Condensation: Water vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds. This is called condensation. 

Precipitation: Precipitation occurs when so much water has condensed that the air cannot hold it anymore. The clouds get heavy and water falls back to the earth in the form of rain, hail, sleet or snow. 

Collection: When water falls back to earth as precipitation, it may fall back in the oceans, lakes or rivers or it may end up on land. When it ends up on land, it will either soak into the earth and become part of the “ground water” that plants and animals use to drink or it may run over the soil and collect in the oceans, lakes or rivers where the cycle starts all over again.

Mondókák (Nursery Rhymes and Poems) - Weather (Időjárás)



Rain Rain
Rain rain
falls on the street,
mud in puddles
cleaning my feet.
Thunder thunder
rumble and roar,
close the windows
and lock the door.
Clouds clouds
black and gray,
heavy with water
to drop all day.
Sun sun
is breaking through,
clouds are moving,
the rain stops too.
Rainbow rainbow
across the sky,
see-through colours
to tickle my eyes.

Rain, Rain:
Rain, rain, go away, 
Come again another day; 
Little Johnny wants to play.



Raindrops
Raindrops are such funny things.
They haven't feet or haven't wings.
Yet they sail throughout he air
With the greatest of ease,
And dance on the street
Wherever they please. 

Rain:
Rain, rain, go to Spain,
And never come back again.

Let's Count the Raindrops
Let's count the raindrops
as they pour:
one million, two million,
three million, four.

Doctor Foster:
Doctor Foster went to Gloucester,
In a shower of rain.
He stepped in a puddle,
right up to his middle.
And never went there again.


RainWhen the rain comes down drip drop drip drop,
(flutter fingers down in front of you)
Windshield wipers flip flop flip flop,
(bend arms in front and move them side to side)
Boots in puddles plip plop plip plop,
(move feet up and down)
I wish the rain would never stop.
Drip drop drip, (use motions as you say it)
Flip flop flip,("" )
Plip plop plip plop, ("")
PLOP! (do the motions and jump)


Incy Wincy Spider
Incy Windy spider, climed up the spout,
Down came the rain
and washed the spider out.
Out came the sunshine,
And dried up all the rain.
Incy Wincy spider,
climbed up the spout again.


Water Cycle
(to the tune of "It's Raining, It's Pouring"
It's raining, it's pouring,
The oceans are storing
Water from the falling rain
While thunderclouds are roaring.
The rain now is stopping,
The rain's no longer dropping.
Sun comes out and soaks up water
Like a mop that's mopping.
The water's still there now,
But hidden in the air now.
In the clouds it makes a home
Until there's rain to share now.
It's raining, it's pouring...

Rainbow SongRed and yellow and pink and green,
Purple and orange and blue.
I can sing a rainbow,
Sing a rainbow,
You can sing one too!
Listen with your eyes,
Listen with your eyes,
And sing everything you see.
You can sing a rainbow,
Sing a rainbow,
Sing a long with me.
Red and yellow and pink and green,
Purple and orange and blue.
You can sing a rainbow,
Sing a rainbow,
Now you've sung one too!

Clouds are Floating(to the tune of Frere Jacques)
Clouds are floating, clouds are floating,
Up so high, up so high,
Floating up above us, floating up above us,
In the sky, in the sky. 

It's Raining, It's Pouring
It's raining, it's pouring,
The old man is snoring.
He bumped his head, and he went to bed,
And he couldn't get up in the morning. 

Thunder
(to the tune of Frere Jacques)
I hear thunder, I hear thunder,
Hark, don't you? Hark, don't you?
Pitter patter raindrops, pitter patter raindrops,
I'm wet through.
So are you.
  
One, Two
One, Two.
The west wind blew.
Three. Four.
The thunder's roar.
Five. Six. Seven.
Rain from heaven.
Eight. Nine. Ten.
Sunny again.

Mr. Sun
Oh Mr. Sun, sun, Mr. golden Sun,
Please shine down on me.
Oh Mr. Sun, sun, Mr. golden Sun,
Hiding behind a tree.
These little children are asking you
To please come out so
We can play with you.
Oh Mr. Sun, sun, Mr. golden Sun,
Please shine down on,
Please shine down on,
Please shine down on me! 

Weather
Weather is hot,
Weather is cold,
Weather is changing
As the weeks unfold.
Skies are cloudy,
Skies are fair,
Skies are changing
In the air.
It is raining,
It is snowing,
It is windy
With breezes blowing.
Days are foggy,
Days are clear,
Weather is changing
Throughout the year!

Weather Song
(to the tune of "Bingo")
There was a time when it was hot
And sunny was the weather.
Sun, sun, all around,
Sun, sun, all around,
Sun, sun, all around,
And sunny was the weather.
replace with appropriate weather words
eg:
There was a time with it was wet
And rainy was the weather....

(to the tune of "Bingo")
Today the sun is in the sky,
And sunny is the weather.
S-U-N-N-Y, S-U-N-N-Y, S-U-N-N-Y
And sunny is the weather.
Other verses:
Today the rain falls from the sky... R-A-I-N-Y
Today the clouds are in the sky... C-L-OUD-Y
Today the fog hangs in the sky... F-O-G-G-Y
Today the snow falls from the sky... S-N-O-W-Y
Today we have to wear a coat.. C-O-L-D

I'm a little snowflake:
I'm a little snowflake, small and white.
When the moon is shining.
I'm sparkly and bright.
When you see me falling,
Come out and play.
You can make a snowman with me today.
