From Roots and Shoots Club
Ms Leontheen and Ms Barbara shared
that the Roots and Shoots club had a very successful Marine Biologist Field
trip last Saturday at the Tree Foundation. The 9 students that attended had a
fantastic time and really learned a lot of information! Here’s an excerpt from
the letter that they shared with the Tree Foundation after their visit.
Lots of authentic student learning happening here!
“We also learned how you help rescue
turtles and if possible you try to get them back to the sea. We learned if a
sea turtle has at least 3 flippers, it can often return back to the sea. But it
takes a lot of hard work to make sure that the turtle can survive back in the
sea. It was interesting to see both freshwater and sea turtles. We support your
idea to make a turtle pond at the elephant sanctuary. Those turtles would love
that new habitat.
FEB FLING - next Saturday, 16
