This site is maintained by a group of 5th graders at Littlewood. The slide show above features pictures taken by the students of different plants in our environmental center.

Here you can find information about the some of the plants and animals one can find at our school's environmental center. Each plant and animal we have identified has its own page or species profile. So if you wanted to learn more about a Garter Snake or a Live Oak, you can find it here. We pride ourselves on listing references on each species profile, so please visit those to get more detailed information.

This wiki is a 21st century version of a school yard field guide. A wiki is a Web2.0 tool that makes it easy for people to work collaboratively on a topic of their choice, making it an excellent resource for education since students can work on this site from anywhere. This wiki will focus on Florida's plants and animals, specifically the ones at our school. The beauty of a wiki is that it is constantly changing as its users add information, so please check back frequently for updates.
