Third Graders Study Puffins!

In third grade we have been reading a story called Night of the Pufflings. Before reading this story, we did a lot of research to find out more about these birds, in order to build our background knowlege about this topic. We read a plethora of books from our media center. Be sure to ask a third grader to find out the answers to the following questions:

1.What do puffins eat?

2.Where do puffins live?

3.What do we call baby puffins?

4.What do puffins look like?

5.How do puffins raise their young?

6.What are the three main types of puffins?

7.What characteristics can you identify about the following birds:
*Atlantic Puffin
*Horned Puffin
*Tufted Puffin

8.How fast can puffins fly?
