Day 15 


On September 11th, 2017 we started working on slides about poisons plants such as poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac. In the slides we talked about the plants, the symptoms that occur if you touch these plants, and how to treat these symptoms. In each group there were 8 people each person was given a slide about one of the topics and had to look it up and create a slide about their topics. We were told to be able to present our slides as a group by Wednesday. We also watered and checked on our plants.

Day 4 

 

 

On May 18, 2017, we learned a lesson which consisted of a group of five students cutting out a six foot paper water droplet to explain how the water cycle works together. First, the students chose a team leader and then the teachers explained the instructions and the strategies for the activity. The goal of the activity was for the four students to stand on the water droplet without touching the concrete. The students had to completely flip over the water droplet while standing on it. After the water droplet was flipped over, the students had to identify the words on the back: percolation, condensation, transpiration, and precipitation. The activity represented many things such as: working together as a team, the way the water cycle works together, and the art of communication. Also, we worked on the compost bin for the greenhouse.
