Polar Bear Learning Activites

January 15, 2024 by Sarah White Leave a Comment

After that post about penguin learning activities, I couldn’t resist sharing some polar bear activities, too. You can do a whole week of learning about cold-weather animals, or just throw in some polar bear activities to add to your winter fun.

Learn about the life cycle of a polar bear and do some polar bear learning and writing using the printables from Homeschool of 1.

Get some cutting practice with a polar bear twist from Simple Everyday Mom. She has other great worksheets for practicing the letter P and labeling a polar bear, too.

Sort nouns and verbs with a polar bear twist with these printable activities for 3 Dinosaurs. They’re related to the Magic Tree House book about polar bears, which might be fun to read (or the nonfiction companion book) while you’re doing these activities. They also have printable polar bear ten frames you can use to practice counting.

Homeschool Share has a printable polar bear math mat where kids roll a die and add snow to the polar bear’s snow globe. This is an easy project for one to one correspondence.

Unscramble words related to polar bears and the Arctic with this printable from Miniature Masterminds. Or solve polar bear mazes with help from Planes and Balloons. Grab a super cute polar bear memory game from Simple Everyday Mom.

Get kids moving and playing with sound with the polar bear sound game from Growing Book By Book. You can play this with rhyming words, saying how many syllables are in a word or words in a sentence, or other ways she talks about in the post.

Add a little STEM to your exploration of polar bears by learning how blubber keeps polar bears warm (this activity from I Can Teach My Child looks super fun) and learn about polar bear dens and designing your own with this activity from Primary Theme Park.

Witch Themed Math Activities

It’s the time of the year to start bringing a little Halloween fun into every lesson plan you can, so here are some ideas for witch themed math activities your kids are sure to love. 

Practice symmetry skills with this witch hat counting game from Friends Art Lab. Kids can stick stickers of the same type on each side of the hat, then count how many total, how many of each type, etc. And you end up with a cute piece of art to boot. 

Frugal Mom Eh has a number of witch themed worksheets including a connect the dots, label the witch and Halloween themed scattergories. But the one that caught my eye was the witch’s leg coloring page, which is a color by the answer to the math problem. 

Nurtured Neurons has a cute witch counting came where you match the witch to the number of bubbles coming out of her cauldron. This one requires membership in their community but you might be able to get a free preview. 

The witches brew on a ten frame activity from Miniature Masterminds is a cute one to work on one to one correspondence. Use little erasers or buttons if you want to reuse the cards, or add stickers to match the number on the card, which adds a fine motor skill component.

The Teacher Bag has a cute Halloween counting game kids can use to make their own potion in a little cauldron. You could make your own version with all the little Halloween themed bits you have handy, and either make a spinner like theirs or just write out some recipes and have kids go through the bigger cauldron to find all the ingredients they need. Then count them up! This post from Pocket of Preschool has a similar idea you can use with their printable or make your own with whatever items you have on hand.
