Polar Bears and Penguins

Today was an exciting day. The students stayed in the classroom during lunch to watch the penguins at the California Science Academy eat their lunch.

We were all sad that the audio wasn't working on their end but it was fun to see the penguins eating and interacting with the scientists.


In the afternoon Mr. Mckiel came to talk to us about his experience with polar bears.

I was so impressed with the connections students made between penguins and polar bears. Tomorrow we will be talking more about the differences and similarities between these two beautiful animals.
