Climate Change and CPAWS

Updated Field Trip Forms:
An updated field trip form is going home with those students who will be going on Feb 3 and 4th.  Please fill out and return the bottom portion of the form.  Thanks!

Today we had our first of two very special presentations from Ms. Vanessa from CPAWs (Canadian Parks and Wildlife Society).  Here are some highlights from the presentation today:




We worked together with our group of 4 or more to write one word together with a whiteboard marker on a plastic sheet of paper - Grace T
We learned about the dire wolf and why it died and why the grey wolf did not die - Cayden
The dire wolf went extinct because of the climate changing during the ice age and the plants died and their food source also died so the dire wolf couldn't survive but the grey wolf lived in a different place so it didn't die - Grace D
The grey wolf didn't die because it had more different foods in it's diet that it could eat.  They ate plants and meat - Aykut
We explored the grey wolf and the dire wolf and we each had a different box to learn about them.  I learned about why they died and it was because of the cave men and the water turned into ice (ice age).  - Zoie
I looked at 2 skulls of a dire wolf and a grey wolf and I saw that they both had sharp teeth - Ms. G
