A Visit to BEEC

Dragonfly Nymph

Our class visited BEEC to explore the aquatic organisms in the vernal pool and pond.  We observed, collected, recorded, and discussed.

Christina helps us learn more about the organisms that we'll be finding.

Aidan and Keegan share their thoughts about snail adaptations.
