Owls in Greek Mythology

Owls in Roman Mythology
Throughout history and across many cultures, Owls have held people in fascination and awe. Few other creatures have so many different and contradictory beliefs about them. Owls have been both feared and venerated, despised and admired, considered wise and foolish, and associated with witchcraft and medicine, the weather, births, deaths. Legends of Owls begin in earliest folklore, too long ago to date, but passed down by word of mouth over generations.

 

Owl Scavenger Hunt

 

Here we are observing our plants as they grow.  Many of us experienced this same unit in 3rd grade, but this year is different because we are planting COTTON PLANTS!  We are growing cotton along with our Wisconsin Fast Plants.  Because cotton was a major cash crop in Alabama' past, we thought we would grow some ourselves!!  We plan to transplant them and put them in our greenhouse soon.  Then in May we will plant them in one of our playground flower beds! When we return to school in August, we should be able to see our cotton plants in full bloom!  We are planting Upland Cotton and Pima Cotton.
