Shedd Aquarium Field Trip

What a wonderful trip we had to the Shedd! I have been taking my students here for six years now, and it is by far my favorite place to take my 2nd graders.This year there was not enough room for us to eat in their designated cafeteria areas so we decided to eat outside on a patch of grass right in front of the museum. I'm so glad we did because the weather we absolutely gorgeous! This trip was a perfect way to help end our school year.

*Note: The creature at the top of this picture is an Australian Lungfish named Grandad. He is the oldest animal at the Shedd. He was on the top of the 2nd graders' list of animals to find.
Can you guess what animal this is? I'm really going to miss this group of kids!
