After reading She’s Wearing a Bird on her Head we learned about the remarkable efforts of Minna Hall and Harriet Hemenway, two determined women activists who founded the Audubon Society to protect birds. Then we admired the extraordinary paintings by James Audubon. Now it was our turn. We examined a crow that has been perched on top of a bookshelf at our school for many years and used charcoal to do our own drawings. It was messy but such fun. Just look at what our 10 youngest students created! James Audubon must be smiling up there!
