Go Green! Beyond Recycling
Students will survey a variety of environmental science issues and activities. During the week the class will use a GPS to complete a geo-cache treasure hunt where there are environmental facts and/or activities at each cache. Students will conduct a stream survey and learn the elements of a healthy stream by getting in a stream. We will also investigate native versus alien invasive plants as well as learn how we can attract local birds.
