On Thursday, the split classes at our school split! In other words, the 2/3 split and the 4/5 split classes embarked on a field trip together to the California Science Center! What an incredible day of learning!
Because the second and third graders are studying animals and their habitats, we spent a good deal of time at the Ecosystems Exhibit.
Enjoy some photos from the plethora (pleth • ə • rə) of exhibits. A plethora is a fancy word for a large amount.
The Giant Kelp Forest Exhibit was spectacular! Watch and learn!
One of the highlights of the trip was viewing the Endeavour Space Shuttle!

It is a triumph of scientific achievement! Here is a link to some amazing facts about the Endeavour. Mrs. Ranney's student, Alex, wrote a post about it too: The Enormous, Enthralling Endeavour.
