La Jolla Shores Tide Pools

Here are a few snapshots from our trip to the La Jolla Shores Tide Pools.

Dawn talks to the Respectful Exploring Creators about what a tide pool is, how it is formed and which creatures we are likely to see and how they adapt to their environment.






Eating lunch at the nearby grassy area.



Practicing how to get a good look at the specimen without disturbing them or their home.







Here we go!






What a discovery!  Seaweed!



Creatures burrowing into the sand.  Were they clams?




Our first tide pool






A sea anemone!


A hermit crab!!







A sea hair!!!









Student documentation about the animals they encountered.















Thank you so much to Lynn (Ara), Sally (Bethel), Julie (Caleb), Dawn (Kellan), Amanda (Maja), and Stephanie (Olivia) for helping to make this trip a reality.  We couldn't have done it without you!

Love, Gaby
