They Passed the 100 Mark!

When I tallied up the tally marks, a loud cheer erupted from the kids!  They were SO thrilled!  The kindergartners love birds and they beg to learn more.  The are catching on quickly to bird identification.  They are watching for similarities in bird families and they have learned to watch for the details that distinguish one bird from another.  This skill transfers into noticing details in text and illustrations.  I have seen students excel at that in past years.
