The 2021 virtual ceremony. Will Punxsutawney Phil see his shadow or no? Will it be cold still or is summer coming? Watch to find out. At 5:00 is when the actual groundhog comes out and the prediction is made several minutes after.
Watch full coverage of the ceremony for Punxsutawney Phil! This is a high energy party to find out if he sees his shadow! (Fast forward to 9:43 if you want the start of the ceremony itself and 13:00 if you want to see just the groundhog coming out). This is such a fun video to what in it’s entirety!
This is a quick song/rhyme you can do with your students about what happens if the groundhog sees his shadow.
This video is loaded with facts. So many things, your students will each walk away with something they did not know!
WOW! This video is FULL of useful facts and great photos and videos! You will learn about how your teeth are like groundhogs, what they eat, and how they go to the bathroom. Kids will love this.
-This video is of different groundhogs in their natural environments. Your students will love because it’s a close-up view! The video is set to music and contains no words.
Let your kids get a peek into the actual ceremony of this famous groundhog. This video is a quick peek at what happens that will excite your kiddos.
This is a great video from Jack Hartman that will teach your students about the groundhog. They will definitely learn how to say Punxsutawney during this song.
Just going to be honest, this video is a little slow to watch but it does have educational value and so it is worth showing to your kids. But, it talks about shadows and the transition from winter to spring and so it does have value to show your kids.
This is just a fun little song about the sun being out and wanting the groundhog to come out and play.
