Many–such as bobcat, fisher, owls and coyotes–are nocturnal (active mostly at night) or secretive and are noticed only by careful observers or by their tracks or other signs.

  • Reference Center Catalog
    REFERENCE CENTER CATALOG KANSAS DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE AND PARKS 512 SE 25TH AVE. PRATT, KS 67124 (620) 672-0751 [email protected] Dear Reference Library User, We are pleased to announce that we have made a major change in the way we serve our users. We have organized our materials into kits that cover specific topics, such as “Kansas’ Day,” “Birds,” “Insects,” and “Weather.” This eliminates the need to “hunt” through the entire catalog to find materials on a specific topic. The new catalog will reflect this change. There are 55 study kits each containing a complete listing and description of all the resources within the study kit. Several popular topics such as “Birds,” for example, are subdivided into subtopics: “Birds of Prey,” “Predator Birds,” “Bird Houses and Feeders,” and “Birds - General.” Included with each kit is a list of additional resources which can be obtained from the Wildlife Education Service section. An order form is included with each kit. With the number and variety of resources available per kit, sharing the resources with other educators should be more convenient. There is an appendix listing the “Education Standards” being met through the utilization of the kit’s resources. An additional appendix estimates the UPS shipping cost for returning the kits. We encourage users to utilize UPS for returning the kits to take advantage of their free $100 insurance policy. Because there will only be 1-3 kits per topic area, we suggest you give us a three to four weeks notice for receiving your kit. It is also important to return the kits by their due date to avoid a backlog for the kit.

Animals have different body coverings depending on what class they belong to: Mammals - fur or hair Birds - feathers Reptiles - dry scales Amphibians - moist, smooth skin Fish - wet, slimy scales 2. Animal coverings come in a variety of colors and patterns. 3. Colors and patterns protect animals by: -helping them blend into their surroundings (example: a tiger in tall grass). -making them look like something else (example: a walking stick insect). -warning others to stay away (example: skunk). 4. Animals bodies are different shapes and sizes. They don’t all have the same characteristics (example: number of legs, position of eyes and ears on head, tails, toes, etc.).

    Photo by Lori Polasek, Alaska SeaLife Center Teacher Guide Recommended for Grades 1-4 Distance Learning Teacher Guide: Marine Mammal Adaptations Alaska Academic Standards Science A12, A13, A14a, B4 Language Arts C2a; Arts C4, C5; National Academic Standards The following National Academic Standards for grades K-4 are addressed within this program: Science as inquiry Abilities necessary to do scientific inquiry Understanding about scientific inquiry Life science The characteristics of organisms Life cycles of organisms Organisms and environments Physical science Properties of objects and materials Objectives Through this Distance Learning session your students will be able to: Define the word adaptation. List several marine mammals and their characteristics. Describe some marine mammals that are specific to Alaskan waters. Explain how their adaptations make them well suited for their habitats. Use the scientific method to experience and explain the function of blubber. Background Information Marine mammals are animals that breathe air through lungs, are warm- blooded, have hair (at sometime during their life), give birth to live young and suckle their young. Marine mammals also get all or most of their food from the ocean. Marine mammals are a diverse group thought to have evolved from terrestrial ancestors to aquatic life through a number of unique physical adaptations. There are four groups of marine mammals including: cetaceans (whales, dolphins, and porpoises), pinnipeds (seals, sea lions and walrus), fissipeds (sea otter and polar bear), and sirenians (manatees and dugongs). This session will focus on the adaptations which allow pinnipeds and fissipeds to survive cold, Alaskan waters. 1. Pinnipeds - Pinniped means “ fin footed” mammals.

  • At the Zoo: Kindergartners Reinvent a Dramatic Play Area Page 1 of 8
    ECRP. Vol 10 No 2. At the Zoo: Kindergartners Reinvent a Dramatic Play Area Page 1 of 8 At the Zoo: Kindergartners Reinvent a Dramatic Play Area Mary Bowne Fishback Center for Early Childhood Education College of Family and Consumer Sciences South Dakota State University Brookings, South Dakota Sue Brokmeier Fishback Center for Early Childhood Education College of Family and Consumer Sciences South Dakota State University Brookings, South Dakota Abstract In a South Dakota early childhood program, children and adults in the kindergarten classroom collaborated to build a “classroom zoo” in support of the children’s pretend play. Creation of the zoo incorporated information about animals and zoos that the children and their families and teachers located in secondary sources such as nonfiction books and the Web site of the San Diego Zoo. Zoo-related activities culminated in a Grand Opening to which families and other classrooms in the center were invited. Background Information The Fishback Center for Early Childhood Education is located in Brookings, South Dakota, on the campus of South Dakota State University. The program houses three laboratory preschool classrooms and one kindergarten classroom. At the time of the activities reported in this article, 22 children were enrolled in the toddler lab. Thirty-four children were enrolled in the 3- and 4-year-old classrooms, 38 in the 4- and 5-year-old classrooms, and 22 in the kindergarten classroom. Fishback Center has been accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children since 1978. The threefold mission of the Fishback Center is (1) to be a model inclusive childhood program that ensures optimum experiences for training early childhood teachers, (2) to provide a unique research opportunity for students and faculty, and (3) to serve as a community resource for families.
