Our team will conduct studies on the behavior, physiology and migration patterns of the leatherback turtles on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. We will help tag and identify turtles, record nest locations and help determine hatchling success. Researchers and scientists have been working with these turtles in for the past 17 years in attempt to understand the impact of human activities and pollution. This work has led to the establishment of a National Park and a Marine Biology field station.

No School Today!

Dear students-
Sorry to leave you hanging, but since school was canceled today I had no choice. Yes you all guessed right, sea turtles can't pull their head and limbs into their shell.
Today I was going to show you a movie about sea turtles to help set the stage for my trip but-no school. So you will see the movie next week with Mr. McCue. Be good while I'm gone and check the blog often. I will be posting some "Challenge Questions" for you to think about. Have a great long weekend! I'll be back in the classroom February 4th!
Ms. Seshadri
