Ms. Anderson's 6th Grade Class Adventures

Out on the Estuary

Ms. Anderson's Science classes took part in a field trip last Friday to the  Channel Islands National Park Visitor Center,  the Ventura Waste Water & Recycling Center, and did research on the Santa Clara Watershed. The trip was sponsored by Crossing the Channel, a program affiliated with CSU, Channel Islands.  This year long  program  provides educational curriculum and mentorships for students about their local watershed while integrating real-world, project-based learning experiences.
The students enjoyed themselves out on the beaches, exploring the museum, and taking in the wonderful smells at the Ventura Waste Water & Recycling Center. 

Please note - Pictures taken of only one of three groups that attended  the trip.
