E.C.O. Lesson: Becoming a Ruffed Grouse

On Friday, February 24th, we learned about ruffed grouse and how they tunnel under the snow and then fly out when they hear a potential predator approaching.  Students worked independently and in groups to build grouse houses for our bobcat/grouse tag game.  It was so much fun to build with snow and sticks!  As you can see from the photos, we were very busy!

Our next E.C.O. lesson is scheduled for this Friday, March 10th.  Then, we will return to our regular Tuesday morning times for lessons on March 14th and 21st. 

We are in need of white and brown sheets that could be cut up for a camouflage lesson.  Please let me know if you have a sheet that you could donate to our class.
