From my research, I see that Phil sees his shadow about 90% of the time. I am done with winter already, so I am hoping he doesn’t see his shadow. And yes I do believe in the power of the Groundhog Shadow!
At 7:30 AM EST on Tuesday, February 2, 2010 the world discovers if Punxsutawney Phil sees his shadow – predicting six more weeks of winter!
Below is some Groundhog fun for your kiddos or classroom!
Let’s start wth a song!
Groundhog’s Day
Sung to: “Mary Had a Little Lamb”
Do you see your shadow,
Shadow, shadow?
Do you see your shadow?
On Groundhog’s Day.
Yes, I see my shadow,
Shadow, shadow,
Yes, I see my shadow
On Groundhog’s Day.
or
I don’t see my shadow,
Shadow, shadow
I don’t see my shadow
On Groundhog’s Day.

I could not get that song in my head to Mary had a little lamb, but it came in instead to London Bridge is falling down. I do not know why. And now I cannot get the song out of my head. ARG!!
Thanks for posting these ideas. I love the movie Ground Hog day – I watch it over and over:)
