Each year the Fifth Grade
reads My Side of the Mountain by Jean Craighead
George. This is a story about a boy who survives in the
wilderness of upstate New York. He finds a peregrin falcon and teaches the falcon to hunt for food
for both of them. After reading the book, the
Fifth Grade adopted a peregrin falcon from the Miami
Museum of Science. Their Wildlife Center has a
rehabilitation program dedicated to the ecological
research, rehabilitation, and release of injured birds
of prey. Eric who works with the birds of prey
brought two owls, a hawk and a bald eagle for the
classes to see up close.
