How do animals manage to get through the harsh winter months? Why does the squirrel make reserves? How does the snake manage to spend the winter in hibernation? Where do the geese go? And much more!

Take part in a grand investigation to discover how urban animals adapt to the cold season. Get ready to have fun and make fascinating discoveries!

This workshop is adapted to the Science and Technology curriculum.

Atelier content: 

• An activity combining pedagogy and outdoor education for a learning experience outside, right in your schoolyard!
• Observation techniques of the living world (preparatory activity).
• In the first part of the workshop: games that get you moving to better understand the adaptations of animals in winter. Your schoolyard will be transformed into a wildlife observation laboratory.
