Field Trip to the Gloucester Heritage and Maritime Museum

A very special thank you to TESPTO for fully funding our recent field trip to the Gloucester Heritage and Maritime Museum.  The students were totally engaged in learning about the habitat of  ocean animals and how their adaptations help them to survive in their habitats.  They made fish prints, used microscopes to identify zooplankton, (animal) and phytoplankton (plant), handled a myriad of ocean animals at the touch tank and even saw the skeleton of Inland, the humpback whale. 
Special thanks to our four parent chaperones...the children were beautifully behaved and proved themselves capable marine biologists!
Thank you again for your support.

Have fun,
Mrs. Madden
