Milton School second graders did a segment on sea creatures earlier this month. Students in Mrs. Ridley and Mrs. Taddeo’s classes walked to Oakland Beach, and, with the help of Rye Nature Center staff, collected and learned about silver backs (minnows), green and hermit crabs, snails, pipefish, sea stars, and even puffer fish.

Afterwards, the children brought their collection of creatures back to school and put them in a touch tank (aquarium) for further observation.
