Today was our field trip to Arts Common for the National Geographic Live presentation: Gorongosa Reborn! Bob Poole spoke about endangered animals, and conservation of the park to the students. He spoke about the history of the park and the effects humans have had on it. He reviewed several species in the park which are struggling, and those which are starting to make a come back. Mr. Poole heavily stressed the importance of conservation in continuing to bring animals back into the park, and for species over all of Africa. It was a wonderful presentation, with lots of information, and the students were very engaged!
Discuss with your child tonight:
-Why is conservation important?
-Why are national parks important to conservation?
-What animals did he talk about in the presentation, and why were they important to the park?
-What did you find the most interesting about the presentation?
Thank you to all our volunteers for your help today!
As promised, here are some pictures of curling from last week!
