Bonkers over Bats: Field Trip Idea for Second Grade Classrooms

Do you teach your students all about bats in October? This is always a favorite unit with second graders. We took a field trip to get up close and personal to learn even more about bats! Do you have a bat rehabilitation center near you? If so, it's a great place for a field trip.
  


This device allows us to hear the clicking sound the bat makes for echolocation.



 It was hard to get a clear photo with my phone of a moving target, and while supervising students but these are pretty neat anyway! Look at the wing span on this bat!

 Have you ever seen a real bat up close?

  1. So cool! I bet your students loved it. I wish we had somewhere like that close to where I live.
