Seal and Whale

So yesterday the grade 11 and 12 science class got to dissect a seal and eat it, so Shane and I were invited to see it and try some...yes I tried raw seal brains. I must say, Shane had the palette for it, but it was hard for me.

Jenn was sweet enough to bring over the lungs and trachea for my grade 5's to see, as they are learning about the respiratory system in science class now.

So awesome! So much fun hands-on learning:)

And today, one of my grade 5 students brought in muktuk (whale blubber and skin) for a treat for the class. They love it! Shane and I got to try it too...

muktuk...better than seal I think, but really chewy!

Shane trying it out...he likes seal better

Stay tuned for more Arctic Cat Adventures!
