Animal Adaptations

Mrs. Kennedy's Second Grade Super Stars have been doing a lot of research and learning about animal adaptations. They learned the difference between structural and behavioral adaptations. Animals all have different adaptations to help them survive depending on the different habitats of the animal. We had a wonderful in school field trip from the Museum of Science where we got to observe and learn about several live animals. A big thank you to our PTO for funding this field trip for us. Our class also participated in some virtual field trips to learn about some animal adaptations in far away places. Each student researched an animal and then designed a google slide as part of class presentation about Animal Adaptations. 
We observed and learned about a box turtle, bearded dragon, and a porcupine.
Virtual Field Trips to Yellowstone National Park, Komodo Islands, and Mexico. These field trips didn't cost a cent!
