Good Morning Families,
With all of the night time activities, we were unable to update you on the night's events.
Groups 5-8 were able to complete some great invertebrate labs during the afternoon. They get to touch many different creatures. One that they do not get to touch, but look at, is the Mantis Shrimp. It has a specially designed cage to ensure its safety. What defense mechanism does this shrimp have? It can shoot its mandibles out at the same speed of a bullet, causing a sonic boom in the water. Needless to say, it is always a sixth grade favorite.
Groups 1-4 dazzled us with their biceps, triceps, and rock climbing skills. They were able to dance, laugh, and challenge themselves with many different levels of difficulty. One of the favorite songs that played was Bohemian Rhapsody.
After a great taco Wednesday dinner, the students from Groups 1-4 either went on a great nike hike, or a night snorkel. On the night snorkel, students say sting rays, round rays, craps, a scorpion fish, and the biolumenesnce. The students from groups 5-8 went to Marine mammal hall and learned about some interesting facts. Including some about constipated whales.
This morning, the students are going on a sunrise hike and will complete their last snorkel.
Until later, Boy oh Boy is CIMI fun!
Best,
Sixth Grade Team
