Happy Halloween!

We had a jam-packed Halloween week!

We finished publishing our small moments stories and celebrated by sharing our stories with the students in Mrs. Lincoln's class!



We dissected Barn Owl pellets to see what they ate for prey!



We made owl masks in preparation for Chewonki's live owls visit and Halloween!






On Thursday, Chewonki visited Rowe School and brought some very special guests!  Huntington the Screech Owl, Olivia the Great Horned Owl, and Veria the Barred Owl.  Just when we thought we knew everything about owls, we learned...

*Screech Owls can be grey or red.
*Owl have feathers covering their entire talon, unlike the bald eagle or other birds of prey.
*Owls get rid of excess body heat by drooling!

Check out some photos from their visit...
