Today second graders visited the Bushy Hill Nature Center. Students had the chance to learn about Bushy Hill’s Wetlands program. This program connects to our Soil and Plants Science units. Students were able to take a walk through the Cedar Swamp, learning about the plants and animals that live in that habitat. They also did a pond probe in the upper pond using nets and buckets to catch and observe plant and animal life. Students also used the center’s bioscope to take a look at some of the microscopic organisms found in water samples. Everyone had a fun filled day full of sunshine and interesting facts.
A special thanks to our chaperones: Mr. Minickene ( Nola's Dad), Ms. Brainerd ( Julia Rose's Mom), and Mrs. LaMay! Comments are closed.
