Our Fantastic Field Trip!!!

We had a wonderful field trip to the WL Outdoor Education Center today. We learned about spiders and insects, helped plant some new trees and enjoyed eating lunch together! We appreciate the support of the WL Foundation for Excellence who helped fund part of our trip through their mini-grant program. 

We learned about how spiders make webs and catch insects by playing some fun spider games. 

We learned that insects have 3 body parts - we put insect puzzles together to help us see the 3 parts. 

There were many things for us to look at and investigate in the insect room. 

We tried out some special glasses to experience the compound eyes that insects have. 

 We went outside to look for spider webs and egg sacks, and then we helped plant some new trees!

The Outdoor Education Center was really cool - we loved exploring inside and outside today!
