We had an exciting field trip to the Vancouver Aquarium! The weather was sunny and the air was cool and crisp. We saw many amazing sea animals, including sea otters, a 9 metre long Green Anaconda snake, stingrays, sharks, glowing jellyfish, and even Scuba Claus in the water!<\/p>\n

After the trip, we took a few days to discuss and reflect on our experiences. Students had opportunities to share some of their favorite memories. We drew pictures and wrote in our journals, and created a web of favorite moments. The web became our brainstorm for the upcoming school-wide write.<\/p>\n

Here are a few favourite memories that came up during discussions:<\/p>\n

“the sea otters playing with us and floating around”
\n“watching the seals eating”
\n“the little baby sharks”
\n“the jellyfish was glowing”
\n“some stingrays”
\n“I touch the starfish”
\n“a monkey in the rainforest”
\n“tiny poisonous frogs”
\n“a giant enormous snake”
\n“the hot chocolate smell from the Polar Express” (this was part of the 4D experience theatre!)
\n“the ride on the bus”
\n“Scuba Clause was in the water!”<\/p>\n

When asked if the children would visit the aquarium again, they all said, “Yes!”<\/p>\n
