The students of Division 7 did a terrific job in creating life size penguins of their choosing. Although there are 18 different species of penguins, Little Blue penguin was a popular choice due to the cuteness factor, and we do not have an example of each species of penguin. During writing we have been focused on instructional, how to writing. A composition that we wrote last month focused on how to make a (dinosaur, pumpkin, fairy, monster) potion, explaining to the reader <em>how to<\/em> make the potion correctly and what ingredients or materials were required. We incorporated our Science knowledge and understanding into instructional writing in the form of HOW TO BE a penguin.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned to see our informational facts that we have collected about our specific penguin, this includes their specific habitat, diet, predators and an interesting fun fact!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-824 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/sd41blogs.ca\/ralpha\/files\/2019\/11\/8B15FA46-75AE-43C1-96C5-582DC657DEC5-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Do you currently know any fun facts about the King, Emperor, Gentoo, Chinstrap or Little Blue penguins?<\/p>\n<p>Read the following facts and take a thoughtful guess in what penguin this fact is describing.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They lay their eggs during the coldest time of the year in the coldest part of the earth.
