Dissecting Owl Pellets

Help me give my students an understanding of animals and how they will eat depending upon their environment.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Linton's classroom raised $778

My Students

My students are awesome! They love coming to school because it is a safe place for them. I have a lot of diversity and creativity in my classes. I teach in a lower class area and my students appreciate anything that is beneficial for their education and well being.

My Project

In this project both of my science classes will be comparing and contrasting owl pellets. These owls come from different regions so it will be interesting to see how there are different species and variants that live in different areas of the world. This activity will be a nice culminating end after we finish our unit on animals and biomes.

I did a similar project a few years ago, but I used barn owl pellets instead.

I am eager to see how this project will go because we will be using owl pellets from different regions and we can discuss the different animals that live in each biome.
