This fall we worked with kindergarten students as they learned what it means to be a "Community Helper" and fourth grade students studying glaciers and erosion at Lapham Peak. We worked with fifth grade students as they explored and studied the marsh and river ecosystems in Waukesha. We travelled to Camp Whitcomb Mason with sixth grade students who participated in a variety of outdoor activities including archery, canoeing, and fire building. Finally, we welcomed many middle school classrooms who participated in a variety of learning experiences including team building, water testing, stream table modeling, and our new Hatchet Survival Challenge. It was a wonderfully busy and engaging fall season for everyone involved!
As we gear up for the winter season, we are looking forward to welcoming first grade students who will be learning about animal adaptations at E.B. Shurts. We will also spend time traveling to 4K classrooms across Waukesha to help students explore the concept of living vs. non-living. Finally, we are crossing our fingers for snow so that we can deliver on the promise of snow-shoeing for several middle school classrooms.
