Letter to Mrs O'Donnell

After Mrs O'Donnell responded to our post about what we found in the rainforest we decided to write her a letter. She was very keen to find out what is special about a toucan. The extra large letter is on the wall in room 3 but we think Mrs O'Donnell won't mind if you share her letter here. Thanks to the wonderful kids in room 3 for all the great ideas for the letter.

Dear Mrs O'Donnell

We have learned a lot about tropical birds. We noticed a lot of different beaks on the birds.

The Harpy Eagle has a sharp beak to eat small birds and animals. The macaw has a strong beak for eating nuts with hard shells. The quetzal has a tiny beak to eat little bugs.

The Toucan has a humungous beak to eat large insects and fruit.

We hope you get to see our pictures.

From Room 3.

Hi Room 3

Thanks for your letter. It was so interesting to find out all about the birds and their amazing beaks. I wonder what we would look like with beaks!!! I hope you had a wonderful trip to the museum - you lucky things!

Love Mrs O'D
