Dupps Family: Classroom Excitement

Not only am I dealing with the excitement of the last day of school quickly approaching, I am also dealing with the excitement of our new "classroom pet" outside our window at school. About a month ago a bird decided to make the outside corner ledge of our classroom it's new home with a nice new nest. A few days later one of the students discovered three blue eggs inside that nest, and it's been a learning experience since. I must admit, I am not a bird fan, but it has been pretty neat having this bird right outside our classroom. The students kept an eye on the eggs and let me know when they hatched- yes, we have three baby birds there now! These birds have grown so quickly, it's amazing. I can't keep my students away from the window or their attention during class, they love watching the bird come and go with a mouthful of worms for her babies. I'm thinking a few more days and these birds will be gone...
