Thinking BIG
We thought it would be fun to make something that would show just how big gray whales are. Then we filled it with interesting facts we found. To start things off we discovered that instead of teeth, this whale has baleen, which is like streaks of yellow plates. Isn’t that cool? Did you know that in the 1800s people almost hunted the gray whales to extinction?  If you are five feet tall a whale is nine times bigger than you! —Dylan, Tym, and Hunter
