This week the students from the classes of Mrs. Bruce, Mrs. Gomez, and Mrs. Owsley participated in sea turtle activities in the Discovery Lab. For half the time students used the laptop computers (most of which were purchased with our NASA and Toyota grants) to play an online sea turtle migration game and to view videos on the National Geographic Kids website. For the other half of the time students made foldable flipbooks that will be used on their next visit to the Discovery Lab. You may be interested in reading an article on the CHANGING environment and endangered sea turtles that was published in the New York Times this week. We will discuss this article during our next lesson in the Discovery Lab.
