Owl Pellet Dissection!

On Friday, our scientists put their skills to the test by dissecting owl pellets (a HUGE hit among our owl class!)!
Each student received their very own owl pellet to dissect. They quickly got to work digging out the bones!
 The room sure was buzzing as each scientist discovered more and more bones in their owl pellets! Collaboration was at its finest :)

After they finished their dissection, the real work began! They were challenged to identify the type of animal the owl had eaten based on the bones they uncovered. It was hard work, but these scientists drew some excellent conclusions!

Check out this AMAZING website, Kidwings-Virtual Pellet, to learn all about owl pellets and to complete a virtual dissection experience with your child!

We love science!!
