Grass Seed Progress and Our Feathered Visitor for "H" Week

Here is a look at the progress of the students' grass seed as of yesterday, Friday, February 17th:

Also, we had a fun visitor in our classroom yesterday for "H" Week--a hawk.  Mrs. Shartzer's brother stopped by before heading to the high school for a demonstration and introduced us to Greta, his hawk.  He usually takes Greta with him when he goes hunting, and had her show us a few of the tricks that she knows.  The students were certainly in awe!

Some couldn't take their eyes off Greta, others were more distracted by our guest's helper that was standing to my left and whistling for Greta's attention.  Still others were helping her whistle.
