Fifth grade students at Anna Maria Elementary School have been studying the structures of plants and animals, and identifying adaptations needed to survive in their habitat. Mrs. Davis' class recently put on their lab coats and dissected squid.
Prior to their lab investigation, students researched the anatomy of a squid, sketched diagrams, labeled internal and external structures, then explained the specific adaptations of the squid. Following their research and study, the 5th grade scientists were able to dissect and put their research into a real-life experience.
Now that's Education with Innovation and Imagination!
