As a supplement to the 7th graders’ study of ecology in life science, students participated in a fishing trip to a small pond located in the Chattahoochee Park in Sandy Springs on May 4. Last fall the students set up a small compost/ecosystem using earthworms and kept track of the population growth. Students then discussed the cycle of prey and predator and used the worms as bait on the trip. Ms. Baldrich continues to engage students in meaningful and interesting field trips.
