Had some fun with the 6th graders today. We read about the Lirpa Loof that is migrating from Montana to the East Coast. If you stand outside with a marshmallow in your hand, hold your hand above your head, and call out, "Lirpa Loof!" "Lirpa Loof!" the birds will swoop down and eat the marshmallow.
Just so you know, "lirpa loof" backward is April Fool.
