Our zoo field trip on Monday was a huge success, and we were lucky to have perfect weather for the day! Students had a great time touring the zoo and learning more about animals in real-life habitats.
One of the highlights was examining owl pellets, which was a fun and engaging way to wrap up our learning about animals. This activity helped students apply what we’ve been studying in class about animals’ sensory organs and special structures, and how these features help them survive. Students were able to make strong connections between their classroom learning and what they observed during the trip, making the experience both exciting and meaningful.
We are now moving on to our next science unit on Earth’s spheres. In this unit, students will learn about how the Earth’s different spheres work together to support various environments, as well as the plants and animals that live within them.
A big thank you to our wonderful parent volunteers who helped make the day run so smoothly — your support is truly appreciated! There will be more opportunities to volunteer later this year, and we look forward to having you join us again.
