Groundhog Day Writing Paper

A writing practice page with a groundhog theme. Features handwriting lines.

This one-page sheet is titled “Groundhog Writing Practice.” A box at the top shows a groundhog peeking out of its hole and leaves room to draw, and below it are six rows of handwriting lines with a dashed middle line.

Ways to use it

• Make a prediction: Have children write whether they think the groundhog will see his shadow and why.
• Draw and write: Children can draw in the box at the top and write about their picture on the lines.
• Shadow play: Go outside on a sunny day to look for shadows, then write about what you noticed.
• Groundhog facts: After reading about groundhogs, have children write one or two facts they learned.
• Copy work: Write a short sentence or poem on the board for children to copy in their best handwriting.
• Results day: On February 2, have children write what the groundhog did and what it means for the weather.
