German Cuckoo Clocks

This lesson was fun for me especially because I have been to Germany (about 10 years ago!) so I was able to talk a little bit about what it was like there. I showed the students the wooden carved black forest cuckoo clocks and we created paper versions with hanging pine cones and birds that popped out on a pipe cleaners (some classes were unable to get to the bird part because we ran out of time) I had one student so proud of his clock he hung it up in his little cubicle area which made me smile :)
