This week grade 1 students had the opportunity to visit the Ann & Sandy Cross Conservation Area. Here we explored the landscape, learned about the animals that live their and learned how winter impacts the animals and vegetation in this area. We experienced what it would be like to be an animal like a vole or a mouse in the winter, staying warm in the subnivean zone (layer between the ground and the snow) and learned where the best place to build a burrow would be in order to survive winter. We had fun sliding down the "penguin slide" and looking closely and the different shapes of ice crystals. Thank you to the amazing teachers at Ann & Sandy Cross and to our volunteers who make it possible to go on field studies such as this!
