I arrived in Melbourne this morning. It is still raining! I visited the Melbourne Museum where Mrs. Rowe's son (HDS alum) works. The museum was amazing (right Kylie?). I was so impressed with the design and how interactive it was. I loved the room below that was filled with stuffed animals from all over the world, but I was especially impressed with the quotation by Albert Einstein that was printed on the wall. That should be our mantra first graders! Mrs. Bjelland you need to put that on our wall (please)!! While I was visiting the museum I learned so many things so I do have two questions for you and I would love to hear your answers (thanks to Charli and Caden - you identified that bird correctly!)
1. What animal, other than a bat, uses echolocation to catch their prey? Hint: It lives in the ocean.
2. What is the name of the horse that is as famous to Australians as Seabiscuit is to the Americans?
Post your answers and I will let you know if you are right!
Dolphins, orcas and sperm whales use echolocation. Love, Caden. Hope you are having fun
ReplyDeleteYou guys are so smart! The whale that learned about was a sperm whale!
ReplyDeleteAddie think dolphins use echolocation just like bats. We hope you are having fun. We love the blog.
