Painting Penguins!

First graders have learned all about 6 different kinds of penguins during math. We compared penguin heights and weights to ours, wrote facts about penguins and get to draw and paint a life-sized penguin! Here are a few Emperor Penguins made by some first graders!

Eagle Nest

The eagles have returned and have begun to prepare the nest for the arrival of an egg or two, we hope! The nest is in British Columbia next to Boundary Bay and this pair of eagles have laid eggs here for a number of years. To keep watch on the happenings in the nest click on the link to the eagle cam under "Fun Websites To Explore." It will take you to The Hancock Wildlife Foundation that supports these live cameras. Ours is the White Rock nest.
