learning experience
Dumbarton second graders are Wild About Habitats! To support their science exploration into animal habitats, students practiced their research skills using Pebble Go and epic! books to learn more about a habitat. Students synthesized their learning to create class books all about habitats using Book Creator with librarian, Mrs. Karluk.
