The teachers participated in a really good jigsaw activity tying standards and concepts to ocean literacy. Following a brain-dizzying day of information we took off for La Brea Tar Pits.

MaryAnn and Jennifer had to have a little hands-on experience with the tar when they stuck their fingers in a small bubbling pool. Yup\u2026it\u2019s tar\u2026and I think it\u2019s still on my sandals! We enjoyed a lovely Italian meal. Jennifer and MaryAnn even did a little wine-tasting.
