Inspiring Owl Video from Youtube

I found this video about a great horned owl to show my grandson, Winston. First I told him the story, Owl Moon, and then I wanted him to see an owl moving. This video is an example of how a picture can be worth more than a thousand words. Beautiful clip!
What's even more amazing is my 5th grade student, Elijah, showed me how to share this video from Youtube with a few clicks of the mouse. I love to learn from my students!

3rd Grade Investigations

3rd grade students showed classmates what they learned during their investigations.  They created a puppet show, several origami worlds and a model of Pearl Harbor to name a few.  Below are pictures of students presenting.  Enjoy.
