Hi, we are from Mrs. Eiger's sixth grade class in Stillwater, MN. We are
doing projects on robins, we'll tell you what they are all about.

Lately we have been working on a snow and ice experiment. The results are
snow melts much faster than ice. The snow melted in 30 minutes and the same
amount of ice took 2 hours.

We are also going to see if plants grow best in light or dark surroundings.
About a month ago we made paper mache robins. We have enjoyed this unit so
far.
