Our field trip this morning was quite the adventure! When we first got there Mr. Doug greeted us and we went into a building where we got to see taxidermy and live animals. Then the students got to make landforms out of Playdough and show off their knowledge they learned in the classroom!
The weather cleared up for a bit and we got to go outside. The students played on the playground for a little bit and then we took a nature walk on the trails led by Mr. Doug. Our second graders are quite the investigators! They discovered many wild plants and seeds which Mr. Doug was able to tell us a lot about. We learned where plants can grow and how they live.
Just as we were starting to finish up our walk it started to rain again and we headed back home. All in all it was a great trip and the children had so much fun learning and having real life experiences in nature! Thanks to all the parents that were able to come and we missed the ones that couldn’t!
