Grades K-6: Adaptation Exploration: Owls

Grades vary per time offering. Cost: $140 per site. January 29 (10:30 - 11:20), February 15 (multiple times) and February 29 (multiple times)

Owls are remarkable birds and serve as an incredible model for your students learn about form, function, and adaptations! Leishawn Spotted Bear will make these concepts come alive using interactive activities and the Museum's outstanding bird collection. Young students (K-2nd) will focus on the function of different body parts and bird characteristics, while older students (3rd-5th) will use body parts and systems to discuss adaptations and to compare/contrast birds with other types of animals. Both programs integrate language arts techniques (so have your students bring a journal or pencil and paper) and feature live animals. Owl pellets are incredible tools to understanding food webs. Our staff will begin an owl pellet dissection with your class that can continue even after the program is concluded.
