Birds of the Grasslands
Mrs. Howard's 4th grade class studied the birds of the Grasslands. These birds often live in large fields of grass, possibly near the edge of a forest. They have to be quick on the ground and have good camouflage when there aren't a lot of trees to hide in. Most of the birds these students studied had feathers in the earth-tone family - lots of browns, golds, and tans. All the sculptures are made entirely of recycled materials, plus acrylic paint. Here are a few examples from this class:

ReplyDeleteI wanted to let you know that I used a photo (and referenced and linked to your blog) on another blog of mine. Really, the blog is just for my own use, but I wanted to see if using that photo is okay with you.
