Thanks to Donor’s Choose, our owl pellet experiment got funded! Ohmiword, the screams of excitement were almost too much 🙂 I loved every second of watching them explore. I should have taken a picture of their thank you notes, but I didn’t think of it. They thanked their donors for the “experience” and said “it was the best day of their lives”. I have never seen a class that loves science and exploring more than this one. This was well worth the time writing the Donor’s Choose project. If you haven’t written one, do it! You will not regret it!
I ordered fiction and non-fiction books about owls and birds. We read them throughout the week and reviewed story elements, text features, and comparing. You can get two freebies here that I made to go with what we learned.
