Our students love Science to Go. This year, we spent two days with Ms. Poaster and debris from local animal nesting sites. Students identified different skulls in the debris from their animal's nesting site/pellets, and calculated the average percentages their animal's diet. Students were enthralled with each aspect of the lab. Again, thank you PTA for purchasing these lessons for us!
Today students studied what three local owls eat. They found as many skulls as they could from pellets that had already been dissecting. Your child either studied a local barred owl, barn owl, or great horned owl. After they found the skulls they sorted and classified them by size. This helped students understand what rodents are necesary in our local forests for owls to survive.
