Cheese Ranch Fieldtrip
Our first graders had a great time walking to Cheese Ranch. Thank you to all of the volunteers who joined us!
We saw and heard lots of birds! We saw ducks, hawks, chickidess, nuthatches and many more. We even saw a duck egg.
Our crew enjoyed exploring, listening and being together.

Hawkquest
We had an amazing visit from Hawkquest! They brough in a Pergrine Falcon, Great Horned Owl, Harris Hawk and a Bald Eagle.
Our first graders learned about the different birds, how their beaks and feet help them survive and how we can help take care of birds.
We enjoyed answering questions, seeing them fly and learning more.
Bird Beak Challenges
Our crew has loved becoming ornithologists and learning all about birds.
We have learned that all bird have feet, feathers, wings, beaks and hatch from eggs.
We explored bird beaks and how they help through some fun challenges.
Future Silver Spruce Crew
We had a wonderful Shadow Day with students from Acres Green! We had another first grade class join our crew for the morning.
We enjoyed getting to know each other through some fun crew games. We made connections and found things that we had in common.
We enjoyed eating lunch together, playing and creating some artwork for Silver Spruce next year.
