Spring is here, and our network of schools will be releasing trout to local streams over the next six weeks. We'll try to post updates and opportunities to observe the fun and learning!
One of our local Trout Unlimited volunteers, Bob Walters, just shared this great article about a Trout in the Classroom program in Tennessee... spring comes earlier down there, and so they are releasing trout before we do.
We love some of the adaptations they are using, and my goal is to build a fish observation box, just like this one. Can you name all three species of trout visible?
Answers: top fish is a brown trout; lower left is a rainbow and lower right is a brook trout! (We only raise brown and brook trout in our classrooms.)
