Research Writing

Just before break we had the opportunity to learn about different adaptations that birds of prey use to survive with a visit from the Leslie Science and Nature Center.  Using what we learned, we researched further using books, websites, and videos to produce a piece of research writing that we then shared with our friends in 2nd grade.  The kids worked very hard!

We researched...

We created life-size silhouettes...

We compared our wingspans...

We shared what we learned with our friends!




We learned the Turkey Vulture Rap written by Joe Reilly and shared it during our celebration.  Check it out below!
