***Attention Distance and Remote Learners - Please MUTE your mic upon entering our Google Meet. Thank you!
Here are some suggested questions to answer BEFORE you watch the video.
1. Why do beavers build dams?
2. What did this lesson make you curious about? Do other animals besides beavers build dams?
Watch parts 1 and 2. The first is 2:07 minutes and part 2 is 3:55 minutes.
Optional Bonus Activity: Beavers aren’t the only animal builders. Birds make nests. Bees build hives. Spiders spin webs. Many animals dig tunnels. Next time you go for a walk outside, look for signs of animal builders. Even in the city, you can spot ant hills and spider webs and sometimes even bird nests. Think about what sort of home you’d have if you built your own home, like these animals do. Would you want to live high in a tree like a bird or deep underground like a gopher?
Make sure to TURN IN after watching the video and learning more about beaver dams!
