Kindergarteners Learn About Sea Turtles on a Virtual Field Trip

House 14 is diving deep into their emergent ocean unit, where students are coming up with essential questions and observations to ground their study.
When students wanted to learn more about Sea Turtles, their teacher contacted a well-known Sea Turtle Hospital, the Loggerhead Marinelife Center, in Florida, to provide students with a virtual Sea Turtle experience.
 
This virtual field trip took students around the world on a behind-the-scenes experience of the Sea Turtle Hospital at Loggerhead Marinelife Center. Students tuned in to lessons on sea turtle biology, ocean threats, and rehabilitation efforts of the current patients at LMC.
