Homeschool Field Log: Day 5

Day 5 is Field Trip Day. We joined a good friend and his mom at Coyote Point Museum for Environmental Education. The museum is full of rescued/non-releasable animals, gardens, and educational exhibits. It's also right near the bay, a giant play-park, and some great walking trails.

We arrived around 11, and The Things all set out exploring. At one point, The Researcher found an exhibit and thought she was learning about a tornado, but Thing 1 corrected her. "It NOT a tornado, it a vortex because there's fluid in there." Excuse me *humph* I think we need to work on parlaying information without the attitude. We also learned about how bees make honey, and and about what turkey vultures eat.

Example 1, Squirrel habitat

Example 2, Currents

Example 3, Spectrophotometry

Example 4, Thing 2 liked this one.

Example 5, The History of The World.

Example 6, Took a nice little stroll along the marina.

Example 7, Thing 1's animal log. Poison Toad is my favorite.
