What I learned about in Mr.B´s Backyard classroom is about macroinvertibrates and about watersheds what I liked about Mr.B´s Backyard classroom is all of the nature in there and how all of these teachers came together to make this for another teacher that had passed away a few years ago.In the Nature Fest I liked that I could teach all of these kids about Eastern Cottontail Rabbits I also liked that some of the kids payed attention to my lesson on Eastern Cottontail Rabbit´s.My favorite memory of Mr.B´s Backyard Classroom is that we were out there with all of the wild life and saw how they live and survive in Mr.B´s Backyard Classroom.

I learned nothing that I haven't learned last year. My favorite memory was when I saw the little kids get so enthusiastic about learning about butterflies... Didn't know they were that interesting but they still got to learn new things and I did have fun at nature fest.

My favorite memory is going out to Mr.B's and learning many things that he couldn't teach us. I like that even though he's not here with us we still get to learn about the animals and the lake and many other things about Mr.B's backyard.

I learned many things in Mr.Bs backyard classroom. One including the very great importance of macroinvertebrates. They are god for the ecosystems because you can tell water quality with them and other animals eat them. My favorite memory in Mr.Bs was when we did all of the gardening. I thought that it was really fun. Overall I enjoyed Mr.Bs my only suggestion would be to keep a little bug spray outside because you get bitten a lot.

I also learned a whole lot about animals and why it is important to care for the wildlife.Another thing I learned is what a watershed is and why it is very important.One of my favorite memory's from Mr. B´s is when we were trying to catch some animals to observe and it is my favorite memory since I love to explore to see new things.

I learned that watersheds are bodies of water that absorb rain water and it's good to care for them because if chemicals get into it then that's bad for the environment. My favorite memory of Mr. B's is when we saw a water snake that was pretty cool. My final thoughts on Mr. B's is that it's good for kids to get an outdoor experience.

This year I learned about watersheds, pollution, macro invertebres, and populations. I wish we could've seen more animals and study specific ones, like the Eastrern Cottontail Rabbits. I enjoyed seeing all the wildlife Mr. B's has to offer, and I was shocked to hear that you cant hunt Bobcats in NJ, but I wish the projects were more fun, and always, I mean always, have a water truck.

I thought Mr. B's was a great addition to the school. It gives us kids a chance to get outside and see our environment that we usually won't be able to see at home. My favorite memory at Mr. B's was the Open House for the 6th graders. I got to lead tours around Mr. B's and show our new students the amazing environment.

I had pencils, erasers, and tops. I brought rubber bands if someone needed some for their project and the kids wanted a rubber band for a prize. It was funny, rubber bands aren't prizes.

I was surprised at how many creatures live in Mr. B's, and sadly, how much danger they could be in without our help. I was unaware about how much pollution caused by humans totally infects the ecosystem. I must say that my favorite memory of Mr. B's was hanging out with my friends in the nice weather and learning about my environment. I think more kids should get the chance to visit Mr. B's or a similar establishment.

I have learned several things this year in Mr. B’s Backyard Classroom. I have learned about watersheds, pollution, macroinvertebrates, trees, and so much more. First of all, before going out to Mr. B’s Backyard, I never knew what a watershed was. Now I do, and we actually live in one called the Mullica River Watershed. Secondly, I knew what pollution was, but I learned that there are two major types of pollution. The two types are, nonpoint and point source pollution. Nonpoint source pollution can’t be traced to find out where it came from, whereas point source pollution can be traced to where it came from. Also, I learned what macroinvertebrates are. I have learned about the Pitch Pine and that it’s pinecones open under extreme heat. I have learned what organisms live locally in my area and in Mr. B’s, and why it is important to take care of them. I learned how to take care of our environment. I have learned that water is not only extremely important to humans, but it is also needed by other organisms. I have learned that snakes eat tadpoles. The information listed above is only a portion of what I have learned in Mr. B’s Backyard Classroom. My favorite memory of Mr. B’s Backyard Classroom is going out to observe the trees and other organisms in the fall. The leaves were orange, red, and brown and starting to fall. Autumn is a gorgeous time of year, especially in Mr. B’s Backyard. My final thoughts on Mr. B’s is, it is a wonderful place to take students to learn and observe nature. I have learned so many wonderful things while being out there and I’m sure others will too. Not only do you learn in Mr. B’s Backyard, but you also have fun. Mr. B’s Backyard is a unique and extremely beautiful part of nature that allows students to learn in a fun environment.

I learned about all animals in and out of Mr.Bs there was a lot of info.about NJ animals . Other than animals there was also macroinvertebrates that explored the area even more. I espically loved the turtles and the tadpoles itś amazing how much tadpoles can grow over time from a tale to tiny feet. LOVE MR.Bs!!!!!!! ^-^ ^-^

I learned a lot about Mr.B's backyard classroom in fact. there were many types of different animals, each that possessed their own unique way of using the ecosystem and behavior. I never knew about much of the organisms in the first place, until I got to experience Mr.B's hands on myself. I also remember all the presentations that let me learn eve more, like Macroinvertebrates and watersheds. We also learned about the ecosystem of Mr.B's itself, as well as neighboring ecosystems like the Pine lands, and how different kinds of variables can affect an ecosystem by testing and making our own mini-ecosystem. My favorite memory would definitely be Nature Fest, because not only do you get to teach kids about an organism, you also get to feel like a professional teaching about a specific species and letting the kids enjoy your hard work and communicating with them, and designing the project as a whole. My final thoughts on Mr.B's would be that this place is just amazing. How such a little ecosystem has evolved into a little ecosystem, but with sprawling organisms like frogs, snakes, fish, and too many else to count!

During my visits to Mr.s B's Backyard Classroom, I finally understood just how many amazing species live in the are, as well as how badly they can be affected by human behavior. Its a little depressing that we have been responsible for the decline and extinction of so many organisms. My overall favorite memory from my Mr. B's experience was relaxing with friends in the nice weather. (When the weather was, in fact, nice that is.) Ultimately, I think Mr. B's classroom is an amazing opportunity, and my only regret is that many other kids will never have the chance to experience it's splendor .
