Barrett Principal Mrs. Bratt talks with a student about his research on snakes. All the second grade classes have been learning about one kind of reptile, endangered (or threatened) sea turtles. Two of the students started doing research on their own at home and in the Barrett library about sea turtles. Soon we had a small group researching different kinds of reptiles. In the Discovery Lab the students viewed videopodcasts created by 4th graders as part of Barrett’s Toyota Tapestry $10,000 grant. Afterwards the students thought about how they could share their research through a videopodcast.
