Working on updating our park plans as we have learned so much about plants and animals. Love how excited the talk in the room sounds as students are sharing reasons for their park designs. #thoughtful

Sharing our finished park animal habitats! Students got to use their communicator skills by explaining 🗣️their habitats and their design choices! They were so proud! 👏 #FCPSpog #science @FCPSScience
