Groundhogs Day Craft Activity

This Groundhog Craft is the perfect companion activity for the book, “Mr. Groundhog Wants the Day Off,” by Pat Stemper Vojta. Students will love creating their very own groundhog craft while using their fine motor skills. This craft is great for Groundhog’s Day and makes a really fun bulletin board!

What’s included in this pdf:

• A photograph of the craft activity
• Step-by-step directions
• Templates that can be copied directly onto colored cardstock or construction paper and then cut out by students. 
• Labeled templates that can be xeroxed onto cardstock, cut by the teacher, and then traced onto colored paper and cut by students. Labels will include the name of the pattern, the color to use, and how many of each pattern to cut (Ex: Body Cut 1 Red).
• Coloring templates (a separate 5 page pdf to send to your students for distance learning)

Here are some fun ways to use the craft:

• practicing fine motor skills
• bulletin boards

• small group station
• pair it with a worksheet, activity, or book
• reward or class party
