At Coolcrest, we had a blast using our knowledge of
pendulums, force, and angles of reflection to negotiate the holes on the
various courses. We might have some future PGA golfers on our
hands. J
Martha Lafite Nature Center (Liberty)-We began with some background information about streams from
one of the naturalists. We also met a box turtle and a painted water
turtle. Next, we hiked to Rush Creek where we used nets to capture any
wildlife we could find. The naturalist explained all of the creatures we
captured. Then they were released back into their habitat. The
students learned a lot about teamwork and stealth when it came to catching
wildlife. :) Some of the creatures we caught were tadpoles, minnows,
crawdads, frogs, and a water scorpion.
