We use the following graphics to get social media engagement before Groundhog Day and to create a school-wide chart for students to write their name to predict whether the groundhog will see his shadow or not. You could easily just do tally marks, stickers, or something faster. I don't supervise this, I just let teachers know that it's available if they want their classes to participate.
