Fourth-graders learn about aquatic life at the Five Rivers Environmental Education Center

Marie Curie fourth-graders recently visited the Five Rivers Environmental Education Center in Delmar to learn about "Stream Life."

Students collected various animal specimens from streams and then observed the animals to try to figure out what they were. Students used nets, plastic containers, and magnifying glasses to collect and study the animal specimens. Students were given pictures and other information so they could identify the different specimens.

The students enjoyed the trip because it offered them the opportunity to go out in nature and explore what it had to offer.
