Mystery Science: Why Do Woodpeckers Peck Wood?

In this Mystery, students observe animal behaviors and work to discover a pattern: all animals seek food in order to survive.

The activity, Eat Like an Animal, includes physical movement in which students act out animal behaviors, pretending to be quail scratching in the dirt, raccoons wading in the water, and woodpeckers pecking a log.
