Mr. Ocampo’s Biology students took their learning outside on Friday, April 24, working in groups to explore different areas around campus. Students observed their surroundings, looking closely at how living and nonliving factors interact, how environmental conditions affect populations, and how human activity shapes the spaces around them. Hands-on, real-world learning in action! 🌿🔍
