Each child chose a bird that might be seen in Barrington and researched the bird. A report was written in school and the projects were completed at home. The students have enjoyed sharing reports and projects within the classroom and with other classes.

Owl Pellet Dissection - Ms. Lenzi's Class - Grade 2



We started our unit by dissecting owl pellets online, read a book about barn owls, then we read and discussed a paper that told more about owls. As a final activity, we dissected real owl pellets using toothpicks and magnifying glasses. We found small bird skulls identified by the beak, various bones and lots of hair.
