Environmental Science

Environmental Science classes have been very active at the start of the school year.  We have built Bottle Biology Terrariums in class and have had two field trips to the GEMPP outdoor classroom.

Our first unit is an introduction to Environmental Science, focusing on the three aspects of Env. Sci:  Nature, Culture, and Technology.  To understand this concept, we are looking at five issues:  Food and Famine,
Wood Use, Coral Reefs, Honeybees, and Mountain Gorillas.
