Swamp final project

_MG_4052-1

The final project for Cyan’s swamp unit was a diorama of the swamp.  She spent hours on it and it looks amazing!

I asked her about each part of the background and the she explained each bit with perfect clarity… at one point she even grabbed a reference book to show me the Mangrove tree “knees” during a flood.  It has been a great study!

I am hoping that sometime soon we will get back to Nisqually Wildlife Refuge to see the changes that have happened over the last 6 wks since we started this unit, but for now, I am really happy she got so much out of it.  Smile
