Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 6
Each day in this four-day camp will be devoted to ancient predators that ruled three different habitats; the land, sea, and air. With each predator, we will learn about its characteristics, hunting methods, and prey. We will talk about the time period in which it lived, what Earth was like, and what other creatures were alive at the same time. 
We will spend the first two days talking about some of the most fearsome land predators. On day three, we will move on to top predators of the sea. Lastly, we will talk about predators that dominated the air.
The last day of camp will conclude with a fun quiz game on the different predators we talked about.
Learning Goals
