How about that Field Trip?

Wow! We had such an amazing field trip on Friday.  I cannot say enough about the staff at River Legacy Center in Arlington.  They were so great with the kids and had so much great information to share.  I was so proud of my kiddos and the knowledge they were able to share with such great vocabulary.  We were able to extend our learning of animals through a 'vertebrate class', a lab exploration of snails, and a nature walk.  
On the nature walk, the kids were able to spot many insects and spiders.  We were excited to see snails, and a turtle camped out in the middle of the trail.  
I would say though the most exciting part was spotting a small snake sunning himself on a branch.  The kids were over the moon excited.
  We will definitely be going back next year and I suggest if you teach 2nd grade in the DFW area, you put it on your list for the 2nd half of the year as well.



Kids, What was your favorite part of the field trip?
