Field Trip Fun

Second graders took a trip to the Soil and Water Conservation in our area today.  They learned all about animals, habitats, and plants that are native to Alabama.

We walked along a path and then climbed into a 'lookout' with a gorgeous view.

We watched as a guide dug through the swampy water and pulled out lots of little critters.  He found several crawfish and a few eggs/larvae.

We learned lots of new things about wetlands and how they are beneficial to us.

And we finished off with lunch a Cici's.

Well, the kids ate at Cici's, and then the moms went for a real meal at Casa Santiago.  Cheese dip is the way to my heart :)
