1 Maggie s Activity Pack Name Date Puffin Olympics If the animal world held its own Olympics, puffins would win many medals! Puffins might wear gold medals for swimming, diving, and flying. They might even sport bronze medals for digging. That s right puffins have many talents! These birds make their homes on the cold ocean waters. They fly for days without resting on the ground. They beat their wings between 300 and 400 beats per minute. Puffins can travel as fast as 52 miles an hour. A puffin s orange webbed feet are perfect for swimming both on top of the water and underneath it. When puffins get hungry, they make big swooping dives from the air to catch a meal. A puffin can hold as many as 20 small fish in its mouth. Once a year puffins come ashore to raise their chicks. They gather together in colonies. You can find these colonies in countries such as Canada, the United States, Iceland, and Northern Ireland. Male and female puffins work together to make a nest. This nest is found inside of a burrow. The puffins dig this burrow with their strong three-toed webbed feet. They use their large beaks to push

2 around the dirt. After the female lays the egg, both parents care for it. They don t sit on it like most birds. A puffin parent puts it under one wing and leans against it to keep it warm. The other parent guards the burrow entrance. Then they switch duties. Both puffins work hard to take care of the egg. After the chick hatches, the parents are kept very busy. They use their excellent diving abilities to fish for herring and other small fish. These pufflings may be little, but they have gigantic appetites! Scientists say pufflings may eat two thousand fish while they are in the burrow. After about six weeks, the puffling s parents say good-by. They head back to the open ocean. The puffling isn t far behind. It stays in the burrow for a few more days. It doesn t need food. It has eaten plenty of fish! Finally, it sneaks out at night when seagulls aren t around. It jumps off the high cliff and lands in the ocean waters. The puffling begins to swim. Now the bird is on its own. But, it will return in about three years. These amazing birds come back to their own birthplace to raise their chicks. In places where puffins nest, people anxiously await their return. These gold medal birds are an amazing sight!

3 Thinking About Words A. Find words in the selection that are synonyms for the words in this list. Write the synonym on the line. 1. wear 2. abilities 3. hole 4. jobs 5. huge B. Find words in the article that are homophones for the words listed below. Write them on the line. 1. metal 2. hi 3. site 4. heir 5. feat Thinking About Puffins 1. Why do you think the author called puffins, gold medal birds?

4 2. What do you think is the most amazing thing about puffins? 3. Why do you think pufflings leave the burrow when the seagulls aren t around? 4. If you could give a puffin a medal, what would it look like? Draw a sketch of it in the box.

5 Dear Colleague, I have a special place in my heart for puffins. For many years I enjoyed reading the book, Nights of the Pufflings, to my class. This heartwarming story tells of the true experiences of young children in Iceland as they strive each year to save the young puffins from the dangers of the streets. Your students may be surprised to learn that lights are the main cause of young puffin disorientation. Light pollution may be an environmental hazard that we often to neglect to discuss. I suggest reading this book and challenging your class to think of other ways manmade lighting affects the animal world. Some companies are trying to do something about this. Budding scientists may want to find out more about this and share their knowledge with the class. Activities such as this serve to engage many students. I find that challenging students in this way helps alleviate the wiggling! Happy teaching, Kathy Goals: Students read an article about puffins, answer comprehension question on both the literal and critical levels and identify homophones and synonyms contained in the article. This activity is available on two levels, primary and intermediate. The activity correlates with the IRA/NCTE Standard, Students apply a wide range of strategies to comprehend, interpret, evaluate, and appreciate texts. They draw on their prior experience, their interactions with other readers and writers, their knowledge of word meaning and of other texts, their word identification strategies, and their understanding of textual features (e.g., sound-letter correspondence, sentence structure, context, graphics).

Do puffins return to the same burrow? Yes. Puffins will defend their nest and reuse their burrow in following years.

Do puffins return to the same burrow? Yes. Puffins will defend their nest and reuse their burrow in following years. Where do Puffins live? Puffins nest in burrows in the ground. The males dig the burrow using their bill and feet to push the soil out behind them. Puffins often use existing burrows made by rabbits. Do
