Last week, Jim Tingey visited the Environmental Club to share information about our rainbow trout and our tank. He gave us different-sized food to try in our tank since our trout are growing. Mr. Tingey is a volunteer from Trout Unlimited who helps us with our Trout in the Classroom program.
Our guest also shared his original fish watercolors.
Mr. Tingey next showed students shark teeth that were found in Morocco and told us that the teeth were 24 million years old! Students got to observe and touch the teeth, then chose a fossilized tooth to take home.
Mr. Tingey will be visiting often and checking our blog, so you can comment to this post and ask him questions about our trout or what he shared with the Environmental Club.
Thank you for coming to our school. It was very interesting. Have you ever been to any other schools? -Keren and Addie
Thank you Mr.Tingey for informing us on the rainbow trout.
Mr. Tingey, I really liked how you showed us the teeth they were very cool! Also, I was wondering, do trout change what they eat when the seasons change?
Mr Tingey, I really liked your painting of the trout and how you let us take home the ancient fish teeth. I have a question about trout:
How many species of trout are there in the world?
Thank you Mr. Tingey for coming and showing us your paintings about the trout.
Thank you Mr. Tingey for visiting us at Lutherville Lab and teaching us about the trout!
My friend Lucia and I have a question for you, and it is how can you tell the difference between male trout and female trout?
Thank you Mr. Tingey for visting enviromental club and helping us draw fish at art I also liked how you showed your art work and let the environmental club keep a tooth . I also have a question – rainbow trouts all have the same color?
Thanks Mr. Tingey for helping us learn about the trout. Do you think there is any shark DNA left on the teeth?
I hope you come back soon you give us so much information!
Thank you for coming to are school and giving us shark teeth. Do you think you know where Rainbow Trout came from?
