¡Bienvenidos, estudiantes!
Did you know?
African penguins can swim 12 miles per hour!
They can dive up to 400 feet!
They have two layers of feathers. It's like wearing a down jacket and a waterproof jacket.
Penguins in the wild only live about 15-20 years. In museums, aquariums, or zoos, they can live up to 30 years.

Activity 1: See and Tell
When we look at pictures or objects that don't move, we are able to spend as much time as we want to notice all the details. However, when we look at living animals, we don't always get that chance— the animal might move away!
This activity will help you practice noticing things quickly and remembering what you notice.
You will have one minute to look at a picture. Find a clock or timer, or another person to help you.
As you look, notice thing either silently or out loud.

What did you notice? What did you miss? Think about what you might want to share with your classmates.
Actividad 1: Ver y contar
Cuando miramos imágenes u objetos que no se mueven, podemos pasar tanto tiempo como queremos notar todos los detalles. Sin embargo, cuando miramos a los animales vivos, no siempre tenemos esa oportunidad, ¡el animal podría alejarse!
Esta actividad te ayudará a practicar para notar cosas rápidamente y recordar lo que notas.
Tendrás un minuto para mirar una imagen. Busca un reloj o cronómetro, u otra persona que te puede ayudar.
Mientras miras, observa algo en silencio o en voz alta.
