  • <b><i>Animal adaptations...<br></b></i>
Alida Hannum, Andrea Jones and other students from Shelley Cook’s second-grade class at Helen M. Knight Elementary School try out their new knowledge of echolocation during a recent outing to Arches National Park. At the park, the students learned about animal adaptations in the desert. The field trip was conducted by the Canyon Country Outdoor Education (CCOE) program, a partnership between the National Park Service and Grand County schools. During a hike in Courthouse Wash, students learned about the survival strategies of different animals and plants, such as camouflage, insulation, and specialized teeth or beaks. While learning about bats, the second-graders also explored the world as seen through echolocation. Students performed experiments to determine how far different types of seeds could travel, and learned about the strategies that have allowed life to thrive in the desert. Courtesy photo
