We studied this fascinating creature. We went back into the text to learn about it's beautiful color so that we could spot this bird. We went back and learned that bird ate seeds, small insects and carrots. In fact it is the carrots that gives the bird it's orange color. In our extensive reading, we learned that this bird is easily frightened, so we must not make sudden movements and must sing it's name.
Here is the video of us trying to attract the Lirpaloof bird.
We called and called the bird. We looked high in the tree, since that is where they like to live. We looked in three high trees.
When we got back to the classroom, Mrs. Wanke said she was going to explain how the Lirpaloof bird got it's name. She wrote the name Lirpaloof. She showed use that lirpa is APRIL spelled backward and loof is FOOL spelled backward!
We were not impressed! She sure got us good!
