 I chose Harvey Elementary School The life-cycle of salmon brings ecology to life. In my summary, the students were engaged in learning about life experiences of salmon and their habitant in the Clinton River. They studied the plants and tested the waters for quality.

I believe this test gave the students a learning experience for the sake of valuing the creating of life and how to help protect living things from dangers that surround the climate. This test also encourages students to appreciate life of their own by learning how other living things survive with nurturing and love.

 Learning about the ecology of life of salmon, students shared their learning within their communities to show the importance of protecting your environment and habitant.

I believe the place-based experience from this story was successful and gave the students and teachers a huge amount of knowledge and encouragement to work together for the better of the environment.
