Yesterday (Monday, March 11th) we were lucky enough to have
Lynn Vanderkamp of Clean Rivers Education (a program offered by the Eviromental
Services Department) come in to teach us about Riparian Habitats. Lynn has been in our classroom before to
teach us about the water cycle (which will all culminate into a field trip to
the Willamette River Watershed in Sellwood).
Lynn's fantastic lesson was on the five elements of a
habitat (food, water, shelter, space, and oxygen. We got to play a Habitat
Bingo game using the Pacific Northwest animals that live in and near rivers and
streams.
Lynn also brought in some pelts and skulls of local animals.
