Campbellsville Elementary School students recently learned all about reptiles and amphibians.

Second-grade students had planned to a field trip to Clay Hill Memorial Forest, but had to cancel because of rain. Instead, the forest came to the students.



Amy Berry, environmental educator at Clay Hill and an instructor in environmental science at Campbellsville University, came to CES and brought some of her reptile and other friends with her.

Berry talked to first- and second-grade students about the forest and what animals can be found there.

She talked about the difference between reptiles and amphibians and let students see and touch some of them.
