As a class, brainstorm different ideas (likes and dislikes, how many of something, etc.). 2.Hand out "Favorite Quarters" sheet (page 4), or use an overhead. Explain that there used to be only one type of quarterthe one with an eagle on it. Now, there will be new quarters for each state. Briefly explain the historical background of the 10 new quarters released to date (see "State Information Pages," 26-29). Ask if any students have seen or used these coins. 3.Have students share different comments and opinions about the new quarters and their symbols. Have students share likes/dislikes about the quarters. 4.Ask students to decide which quarters they like best, the eagle quarter or the new quarters. 5.Have students who prefer the eagle quarter raise their hands, and count the number of votes from the class. Then have the students who prefer the new quarters to raise their hands, and count the number of votes from the class. 6.Using the pre-made graph (x and y axis), demonstrate how to show the data in a graph, either pictorially or in a bar graph. Part II: Student Activity 1.Ask students to look at the "Favorite Quarters" sheet (page 4) and follow the instructions, circling their favorite quarter. (Unlike the class activity, the student can select any one of the 11 quarters). Collect the sheets, and as a class, tally the votes. 2.Hand out the "Building a Graph" worksheet (page 5). Ask students to graph the results of the class votes. 3.Students will be assessed based on their ability to complete the graph accurately and answer the two questions at the bottom of the worksheet. ENRICHMENT/EXTENSIONS Students can create their own survey, having students or family members choose between two different quarters, collecting the data, and displaying it in graph form. Students can answer or create questions about the graph. Students can trace their favorite quarter onto a piece of paper and write a paragraph about why they like the design on the quarter the best. Students can create their own quarter designs; they can display their designs to the class and tell why they included what they did. 3 2000 U.S. MINT ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Favorite Quarters DIRECTIONS: \ Circle your favorite coin.

  • A Nesting of the Carolina Wren
    September194X Vol. 60, No. 3 THE WILSON BULLETIN 139 A NESTING OF THE CAROLINA WREN BY MARGARET M. NICE AND RUTH H. THOMAS1 HE Carolina Wren, Thryothorus ludovicianus, charming, conspicu- T ous, and widely distributed as it is throughout southeastern United States? has been much neglected by life-history students. And this in spite of the fact that it often leaves its characteristic woods habitat to nest about buildings and even on porches. In 1946 we were able to watch one nesting of this species from the arrival of the female to the leaving of the young. The male, which had been banded March 27, 1941, near North Little Rock, Arkansas, had lost a mate in late March 1946. On April 18 we noted him bringing three wisps of.grass and placing them under the eaves of the sleeping porch. (Typically, in Ruth Thomas’ experi- ence, a male does not build until mated.) On April 19 we first saw his new mate, an unbanded bird. BUILDING THE NEST In the afternoon of April 19, the new female came onto the porch, then flew to the base of a nearby oak; the male suddenly dropped down from his perch, hitting her and giving a loud song; she answered with the typical %creech” of the female Carolina. Later we discovered them nest-hunting in a shed to the south; we removed the grape bas- kets that were stored there and hung one (partially closed with a shingle) on the sleeping porch. The next morning (April 20)) at 7: 55, both came to the porch; they entered the basket, gave little notes, then left.

    Carolina Wren Thryothorus ludovicianus Folk Name: Mocking Wren, Change Bird Status: Resident Abundance: Very Common Habitat: Woodlands, overgrown fields, field edges, residential areas The Carolina Wren is one of our best known and most beloved birds. Most Carolinians know this perky resident wren when they see it and often, when they hear it as well. Its tea kettle, tea kettle, tea kettle, or freedom, freedom, freedom call, is a familiar part of everyday life around most homes and neighborhoods in this part of the South. In fact, the Carolina Wren was so popular in North and South Carolina that it was nominated to be State Bird in both states, and it actually won—twice in South Carolina. In North Carolina, the Carolina Wren was a leading contender for State Bird designation in 1943. Several organizations recommended that it be selected to represent the state. Statesville pharmacist Maurice they provide an excellent way for children to learn about Stimson published an article in support of the Carolina the nesting process. These birds are seldom frightened Wren, writing: away when people are careful about observing their eggs and young.

  • Observations at a Carolina Wren Nest from Which Brown-Headed Cowbirds Fledged
    OBSERVATIONS AT A CAROLINA WREN NEST FROM WHICH BROWN-HEADED COWBIRDS FLEDGED DOROTHY HOBSON LUTHER Records of Carolina Wrens (Thryothorus Zudovicianus) fledging Brown- headed Cowbirds (Molothrus ater) are rare, with only one instance reported among a dozen or so known parasitized nests (Friedmann, 1963:39). Most of the evidence that this species successfully hosts cowbirds is circumstantial and includes infrequent reports of fledgling cowbirds being fed by wrens. In view of this lack of data, I present my detailed observations of a banded pair of these wrens, which successfully fledged three cowbirds. The observa- tions were made at our 1Zacre bird sanctuary near the Pine Hills Nature Preserve, Shades State Park, in Montgomery County, Indiana. I spent about 35 hours at the task, observing without a blind 18 feet from the nest. The wrens ’ nest was in a shallow, cardboard fruit basket (12 X 8 X 4 inches), suspended six feet above ground beneath the broad eaves of a flat- roofed building. The previous year I banded the wrens as young of the year, the female on 22 May, the male on 9 September. In 1972 I retrapped them and added color bands, later sexing them by their behavior. On 7 June these inexperienced wrens completed their nest, leaving an unusually large opening above the rim of the basket, which faced outward in full view, a boon to the cowbirds and to me as well. Between 7 and 17 June four Carolina Wren eggs and three Brown-headed Cowbird eggs were laid in the nest, but a wren egg was probably removed by a cowbird.

  • Quarter and Half Dollar Coins: History and Proposed Designs
    December 19, 2019 Quarter and Half Dollar Coins: History and Proposed Designs The Secretary of the Treasury, through the U.S. Mint, is Figure 2. Bicentennial Quarter and Half Dollar, 1976 statutorily required to issue specific denominations of circulating coins (31 U.S.C. §5112). Currently, the United States has six circulating coins—dollar, half dollar, quarter dollar, dime, nickel, and penny. All coinage is also required to have certain design elements, including specific words such as “Liberty,” or “E Pluribus Unum.” The quarter dollar has been redesigned twice in recent years (1997 and 2008), while the half dollar was last redesigned in 1964. Quarter Dollar Designs The first quarters were issued in 1796 and depicted Lady Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. Since then, the quarter dollar has been redesigned four times: in 1932 to place President Washington on the obverse, in 1976 for the Bicentennial of the United States, in 1997 when the 50-state quarter program was authorized, and in 2008 when the America the Beautiful program was authorized. Washington Quarter In March 1931, President Herbert Hoover signed a law (46 Stat. 1523) to change the design of the quarter dollar coin to commemorate “the two hundredth anniversary of the birth Source: U.S. Mint, “1976 Bicentennial Coins,” at of George Washington.” The law required a portrait of https://www.usmint.gov/learn/kids/library/bicentennial-coins. George Washington on the obverse and “appropriate devices on the reverse….” The finished coin (as seen in 50 State Quarters Figure 1) had a “standard eagle” design on the reverse.
