Groundhogs Day can be a tricky time of year to find good quality resources to discuss groundhogs and lights and shadows. I have compiled a list of Fiction Books, Non Fiction Books, and books to cover lights and shadows. And of course, there is a printable copy you can grab as well.
First, let me say that this list is a resource guide. Look at your school library, your public library, and in other resources so you can find books to fit your classroom needs. I love shopping at Scholastic using my point.
Another resource I suggest is using FREE digital resources EPIC! (You can read how to gain access to this app as a teacher for free here.) I checked this free resource today. They have books to cover all the topics: groundhog day, lights, and shadows.
If you need the book fast, Amazon Prime is a great resource as well. This is why I included these links beside the titles.
