Casa de Campo Vegetation

This week and next the 6th grade classes will be going on a field trip to Casa de Campo to observe and experience its ecosystem. Here are some pictures of the different trees and their leaves that can be found along the way so you are already familiar and thus be better prepared for your day out in the sun! Try to remember as much as you can so that along the way you can point out and identify the different trees. Here is a great website in Spanish to help you learn even more about Casa de Campo!
