Our Bear Activity - Jack

We learned about what bears eat and how they survive by pretending we were bears. We had go outside and collect squares Mrs. Forrest scattered all over the field. They had letters and numbers on them and put them in an envelope, our den.

When we came in the classroom we found out the squares meant food and water, and how many pounds. We had to figure out if we had enough squares to survive. I didn't. I didn't even have a water source until we traded. When we cooperated, people gave their extras to people who didn't have enough so they could survive.

We learned that this is like our food drive because we give food to others who don't have food and money.

It was fun because I liked seeing Hunter be a blind bear.
