Animals

We continue to learn about animals and their adaptations. The students researched and presented facts on their chosen animal. They did a wonderful job learning how to organize their research, import a picture, and type a great report.

I have added new pictures from our Langwood field trip to the class website. Check out the additions. Thank you Julie Crawford for the pictures and accompanying us for our day of fun and learning!

Field Trip Fun

Langwood

We have been studying habitats in science and were able to learn more  during our animal field trip to Langwood Education Center with Louisa County Conservation. We caught insects and frogs, made casts of animal tracks, learned about animal skeletons, and played the prey and predator game. We even had to fish out shoes stuck in the mud!!! I am posting more pictures on the classroom website as I get them but here is a quick look at the fun.

Recovered the sunken, mud covered shoes!!!
