Preschool: Field Trip to Glen Echo Aquarium & Park

On our field trip to Glen Echo Aquarium & Parks, our curious GISW preschoolers were fully engaged in learning about the fascinating fish and sea creatures of the Chesapeake Bay - the largest estuary in the country and home to a diverse array of aquatic life, including fish, crabs, and oysters.

In addition to exploring the bay's rich ecosystem, our young learners were also introduced to the water cycle - the natural process by which water moves through various forms, from evaporation to precipitation and seeping into the ground.

It has been wonderful to see our preschoolers show such enthusiasm and attentiveness as they absorb interesting information about the flora and fauna of our local area. It is rewarding to see their joy as we nurture their curiosity and encourage them to explore the world around them.
