Stream Searchin’

May 18, 2013 - Preschool Weekly

This Week’s Adventures: We searched aquatic places all over Irvine’s grounds and also took a family field trip to the Hammerman Beach area of the Gunpowder River where it meets the Chesapeake Bay.

Favorite Activities: We loved roaming the wet woods and stream. We caught frogs, crayfish and lots of other invertebrates in the stream and vernal pools.

Next’s Week’s Theme: Salutations and Songs

Try this at home: With an adult, pick up trash near your home, along the street you live on, or in a local park. Trash can wash into waterways which isn’t healthy for the creatures that live there!
