		<description><![CDATA[When the gray wolf was eradicated from Yellowstone National Park in the 1920s, more was lost than just the noble and fascinating predator. The park&#8217;s entire ecosystem changed. Now, nearly a dozen years since the wolves returned, the recovery of that system to its natural balance is well underway.  In the Valley of the Wolves [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi Super Scientist
This week we enjoyed learning about ecosystems.  We enjoyed watching Finding Nemo and applying what we have learned about ecosystems: abiotic and biotic factors, habitat, symbiosis, and food webs. We created our own cycle of life by creating food chain from National Geographic magazines.    

A food chain includes plants, or producers, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Symbiosis basically means ‘living together&#8217; . These symbiotic interrelationships can be divided into three main categories; Mutualism, when both species involved benefit from the relationship, Commensalism, when one species benefits and the other isn&#8217;t affected, and Parasitism, when one species benefits, and the other is harmed in the process.

Commensalism                              Parasitism                           Mutualism

What is a habitat?
A habitat is a special place where a plant or animal calls home. Just like you have a home or place to live, so do animals and plants. When we talk about an animal or a plant&#8217;s home it is more like a neighborhood than a &#8220;house.&#8221; An animal needs four things [...]]]></description>

Next, students learned the 8 ways that geologist can identify minerals: C3DFHLS- Color, Cleavage, Crystal structure, Density, Fracture, Hardness, Luster, and Streak.  Students [...]]]></description>

This week students are continuing their ride along Earth&#8217;s bumper cars. Students will learn that the Earth is under stress just like HUMANS are. Students can really relate because many of them had stress coming up to present during their VOLCANO projects. The Earth&#8217;s crust undergoes Tension, Compression, and Shearing. Stress puts pressure of the [...]]]></description>

Students had an awesome time learning the parts of a volcano (magma chamber, pipe, vent, crater, lava flow, pyroclastic flow, ash cloud).
