SHOW & TELL
Preschool visits with Dr. Sue
On Friday, January 14th, Dr. Sue, "the Bug Lady," came to "bug" Edgewood's preschoolers with her traveling Arthropod Zoo. After discussing the five types of arthropods, Dr. Sue brought out her famous tarantula, Rosa Josefina Segovia. Without a doubt, the highlight for the children was when the students were allowed to pet a few of the arthropods brought in. Dr. Sue's Traveling Arthropod Zoo demonstrated to be a great success as the children were able to further their knowledge on bugs and insects, and finally witness for themselves, what they had previously only seen in books.
Kindergarten to Amy's Farm
On Friday, January 14th, the Kindergarteners went to Amy's Farm for their first field trip. The children had a great time petting the pig, horses, kitties, chicks and a giant cow named Tina!!! Amy, the owner of the farm, taught the children about growing an organic garden, and let the children pick lettuce from her garden to feed the pig named Wilber. The weather was perfect for our trip and the mountains close by were just beautiful. I'm sure the Kindergarteners will never forget their hands on experience milking the cow and becoming true farmers!!
2nd Grade to the Ocean Institute
Mrs. Kaneski's and Ms. Escutia's second grade classes had a great experience on their first field trip of the year at the Dana Point Marine Institute. Students had the opportunity to look through microscopes at plankton, feel sea stars and other sea creatures in the touch tank, learn about ocean animals' adaptations, life cycles , ways of reproduction, and much more! It seemed that the most exciting part of the trip (as told by the second graders) was the dissection of a squid. The kids were fascinated by this and can't stop talking about it. Ms. Escutia's class wonders if the next two field trips will even compare. I guess we will have to wait and see.
