Our classroom, along with Mr. Reynolds' class, is participating in Global Village, a program made possible by the Oak Park Education Foundation. April Keller, a marine mammal trainer, from the Shedd Aquarium came to our classroom to discuss her job. She showed the class a video about a day in the life as a marine mammal trainer at the Shedd and she then took the time to answer all of the students' questions about her job. Ms. Keller also demonstrated how she trains dolphins with a student volunteer (see the picture above).
Hehehe! That was so fun! It was so funny when April kept saying "Good Dolphin, go!" She said it like 50 times!
