LLELA



On April 14, 2010 our class went on a field trip to LLELA, which stands for Lake Lewisville Environmental Learning Area. We had so much fun walking around on trails and learning about different types of animal adaptations. We also did a bug lab and got to look at some very interesting creatures under a hand lens.

Crawfish, Crayfish, or Crawdaddy and Snails



In science the class has been studying crayfish and snails. We have learned so many new things about these creatures such as, what they eat, where they live, and some of their different adaptations.
