Natty's Great Brain Project

The kids in 1st grade all have to do a "Great Brain" project, which is similar to a research paper, but it is a short presentation. They have to study a subject and present it to their class. Emily did hers on eBay, Natalie chose Owls. She worked very hard, read a lot about Owls, and took a trip to the Tracy Aviary to see and learn more about Owls. She did an excellent job.

Here she is presenting to her class:

Explaining the various details about Owls:

Showing her class the "Pellets" that owls regurgitate after eating little animals. She got a sanitized one in a book she bought at Tracy Aviary and the class was able to pull it apart and find all the bones. They were really impressed with this:
