Our trip to the Aquarium

Sorry for the delay with this post. We've been SO busy in class publishing books and finishing projects. I have posted a few recent pictures on Twitter lately. I hope you've seen them! @mrsholm2

 

We had a great time visiting the New England Aquarium in Boston. This trip supports our science curriculum as we study animal habitats and adaptations. Thank you to our chaperones for your help and time and for the great photos!

We saw a sea lion show upon arrival. This was a great demonstration of how intelligent animals are and how effectively humans and animals can work together.

There were several opportunities for hands on discovery including a new exhibit about turtle rescue and rehabilitation.

Some of the highlights of the trip were the penguin exhibit, the sting ray and tiger shark touch tank and the IMAX 3D show "Secrets of the Ocean".
