4th and 5th Grade Mongolian Gerbil Study
Abbe Futterman, teacher

           The 4/5th graders have embarked on an exciting study in biology: Mongolian gerbils. Each table group shares a pair of gerbils. The students are responsible for researching the needs of gerbils in order to provide an appropriate habitat. They are currently working on research projects on native habitats, adaptations, classification, behavior, diet, predators, anatomy and care of gerbils.
