Yesterday, Mrs. Cook's second grade class made a trip to the high school as part of a Science & Literacy place-based unit created by Mrs. Jeannie Lindsey, which is centered around the invasive green crab!
High school student Shannon M. & science teacher Ian Hudson presented facts about the invasive green crab issue. The students were able to get an up-close look at these βinvadersβ and were very engaged with the learning! π¦

The high school students concentrated on writing and podcasting, and the middle school students worked on a Reader's Theater version of the Lorax in which they presented to the kindergarten. Thank you to Brian and our students for a fun week!
