For years I have enjoyed studying owls with my students. The owl pellet dissection is one of my favorite activities to do with kids. This year I tried something new. I found this great site:
http://www.kidwings.com/ where you can do a "virtual" owl pellet dissection. I got the site from Keith Schock's blog: http://teachwithpicturebooks.blogspot.com/ The big question was should we do the online dissection
first or the real thing. I decided to do the online version first since our school just got its first computer lab.After the real experience (an hour after the computer one) our classroom discussion involved comparing and contrasting the two activities. Christine
