CBA Permission Slip – Grades 6&7 Field Trip to SC Aquarium – May 2024

Dear parents of 6th and 7th grade students,

Your child’s class is going on a field trip! This is an excellent chance to further your child’s learning outside of the classroom.

On May 7, the 6th and 7th grade class will visit the SC Aquarium. Students will review all the major ecosystems and organisms they have studied this year at the aquarium and see conservation work in action. Students will build food chains at the Blackwater Swamp Exhibit as well as the Saltmarsh Aviary. They will determine what happens if levels of the food chain are missing and brainstorm ways to keep those ecosystems clean.
