FAMILY FUN FRIDAY #3
ANIMAL TRACKS AT THE
LAND LAB
Friday, January 31st, 2014
9:00-10:30
The Land Lab is located right here in Independence. It is a temperate deciduous forest
with a running stream that the High School Biology Club
maintains and uses for educational studies. There is a large classroom behind
the Board of Education that is filled with lots of CRITTERS. Some High School
students and Mr. Maretka (Biology teacher) will be putting on a special program
for our preschoolers. Students will learn how to
investigate the lives of animals through the tracks and other signs they leave
behind. Making animal track prints, created a book, and a nature hike to hunt
for animal tracks are included in this fun winter event!
