Potato Groundhogs

Ever since I was a student teacher, I have had each of my classes make potato groundhogs--so I was very excited for this year's class to join in the silly tradition!  They are very simple, but the kids just get a kick out of having their very own "groundhog" to take outside to find out if it will see it's shadow!  Our little guys did see their shadows...so we aren't sure who to believe:  Punxatawney Phil or our own groundhogs?!
