  We have learned many things about reptiles. Here are some great questions for your child.

We had some great expert speakers come and speak with us about reptiles. We had reptile hobbyist who spoke with us about the reptiles she owns and also gave our kiddos an up close look at a variety of different reptiles. We also had people come from Weber that gave us some background knowledge about amphibians and how they are different than reptiles. 


On Tuesday, we were able to have a visitor from the Department of Natural Resources and spoke about his profession as a herpetologist as well as really neat information about frog calls. (He also gave us the posters for all of our students to take home about the native fish of Utah).
