For this Wonder Weekend, join us in the Wildlife Photography of the Year exhibition to try out making blackout poetry as a response to the wildlife photographs. 

Blackout poetry is a fun and easy way of making a poem where you start with an existing text and then 'blackout' words on the page to create a new meaning. There will be pages of old encyclopedias to get you started, and the wildlife photographs around you to provide inspiration.

This digital program is designed for Grades K-3  

Imagine going to sleep and not waking up for months. This is what certain animals do in order to be safe, dry, and warm during the coldest time of the year.

During this session, we will explore animals like bears and marmots, and gently elbow our way (so to speak) into their dens to learn why and how they hibernate. We will look at displays in the Royal BC Museum galleries and investigate specimens in the Royal BC Museum collection. At the conclusion of the program, we will share a bedtime story.
