Notre Dame Academy Teacher, Jana Matthei introduced Harvard Forest Schoolyard Ecology to Massachusetts and NH teachers at the Massachusetts Association of Science Teachers (MAST) Conference in Boxborough on Friday, Nov. 4th.
Keeping Climate Change Investigation Local: How Students Can Learn About The Impacts of Global Climate Change On Trees in Our Massachusetts' Woods was the title of the MAST session. We were pleased to have a full audience of engaged science teachers participate in our session.
Along with showing how she engages students in the process of field investigations step by step at her school, Jana provided teachers an opportunity to practice tree identification and recording data on the field sheets.
