Do you know the chickadee,
In his brownish ashen coat,
With a cap so black and jaunty,
And a black patch on his throat?
Language: Write a story about the winter experiences of a downy woodpecker.
Geography: Describe the summer home of the snow bird.
ANIMALS OF THE ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS
Pupils who have an opportunity to visit museums or zoological gardens will observe more intelligently if the visit is preceded by such a discussion in the class-room as will arouse their curiosity respecting the habits, movements, and adaptive features of the animals about to be studied.
CLASS-ROOM LESSON
Name the kinds of bears you have seen or have read about. What kind was the largest?
Are all bears wholly flesh-eating animals? Find out what food the keepers give these animals.
What features give to the bear his great strength? Observe the length of his "arms", teeth, claws.
Does the bear climb a pole in the same way that a boy does?
