Field Studyb Hoffler Creek

Took my IB classes to Hoffler Creek Wildlife Preserve on Friday for an all day field study. Students had to plan, and investigate a problem of their choosing. It was an amazing day. Not sure why I have not done this before but it was awesome. Students tye-dyed shirts, worn war paint for science. I have pictures that I am puting together for presentations. I will post that link later.

    No difficulty at all since in the IB curriculum the group 4 project is mandatory. About 20 students participated. I would suggest that more teachers take the risk and set-up this type of experiment. The rewards for the hard working students was worth the extra stress.
