Science Center Visit

Mrs. Rizzutto from the Science Center came to Room 221 with some extra special guests this morning. She brought a gecko, a bearded dragon and two doves. The children enthusiastically did scientific observations of one bird and one reptile. The children shared what they noticed and Mrs. Katz charted the information on a table. They specifically looked at different parts of the animals: head, legs, feet, eyes, ear, movement,etc...  We will use the table to compare characteristics of reptiles, birds and finally dinosaurs to see why scientists think they are linked through evolution. It will lead to many interesting discoveries I'm sure!
