SJS 3rd graders have been learning about small animals and habitats as part of their science lessons. Students are working on researching, writing, and illustrating a short book about an assigned animal. Yesterday, Mrs. Phelan’s class dissected (sanitized) owl “pellets,” as they learned about owls and what they eat (click pictures to enlarge).  The kids were excited to have retired SJS 3rd Grade teacher Mrs. Camposeo come back to join in the fun!  Mrs. Moran’s class will be doing the owl pellet dissection after April break.
