Field trip programs: Grade 1

We will explore animal homes, food, signs and various adaptations that animals use for surviving in the cold, snowy months.

Just as each neighborhood has its own needs and inhabitants, each habitat has its own animals, plants, and interactions.

Students will learn about the science of entomology through a live insect lab, and will collect insects, and their non-insect relatives, in various habitats on our trails.

At the pond, we will collect and observe several varieties of invertebrates that depend on this habitat.

Students will have the opportunity to sharpen their observation skills as they explore life in and around a tree.

Students will explore the diversity of life on their school grounds by observing, collecting and recording data.
