Wallops Island

Third-grade students had the opportunity to spend two days at Chincoteague Bay Field Station, where they learned about marine life for their ocean animals projects. During their time at Chincoteague, they were taught how dunes are formed and how to strengthen them. They also explored the intertidal zone and discovered various creatures such as shrimp, snails, and crayfish. Additionally, they attended two classes where they learned about maritime forests and observed different organisms.
