April 26: More Global Carbon Footprint and Owl Pellets.

Today we talked a little more about global energy sustainability and our carbon footprint as it relates to different countries around the world.  All the kids should understand this for this for the quiz tomorrow.  We also did a quick owl pellet lab today where I asked them to dissect a pellet, list and describe what they find and place them in the appropriate “consumer level” as on page 46 in the text.  They made a mess, but had fun.  I wish we could spend more time doing this kind of stuff instead of redirecting the aberrant talkers in class.
