In all of the excitement preparing for my trip, I want to thank some of the people who helped make this trip possible. I can't think of a better way (other than buying them souvenirs in South America!) than to post their names on my blog.
Gracias to Robert and Judy for your support from day one...Lyn and Irene for brainstorming, proofing, and looking at my work with fresh eyes...Donna and Chris for your letters of recommendations...Mom for the many meals that provided me with the energy to slave away at my work...Toyota for funding the program...the IIE selection committee for choosing me...and gracias to the Mt. Laurel Administrative Team and Board of Education who are allowing me to take off two weeks during the school year!
And students, I want to thank you in advance for behaving for the substitute!

Yes, blue feet! The blue-footed booby is just one of the amazing animals that calls these islands home. Please join me as I travel to the Galapagos Islands from September 30, 2007 through October 12, 2007 to learn about the unique animals of the Galapagos and the environment in which they live.
Teachers - Do you want to go to the Galapagos Islands?

About me
- Ms. Maureen Barrett
- Hola and welcome! My name is Maureen Barrett. I am an 8th grade life science teacher at Harrington Middle School in Mt. Laurel, New Jersey. Each year I try to participate in some kind of scientific expedition to learn more about science. These trips allow me to work side-by-side with scientists and other experts in places all around the globe. This year's field trip is to the Galapagos Islands. Please join me as I travel to Ecuador's Enchanted Islands in South America. Together, we'll learn about the amazing wildlife inhabiting these volcanic islands.
