Don't you love it when you have students who help do your job for you?!!
I definitely do...and in this case, it is Schoolyard Teachers doing my work for me...giving me ways of showing what Schoolyard Ecology looks like on school grounds and in the classroom.
Many thanks to teachers, Michael McCarthy from Thurston Middle School in Westwood and Mary Reed at St. Mary's Parish School in Westfield for sharing these views!

Michael has put together a wonderful combination of images and links related to the 2 Schoolyard Projects he leads in Westwood.
I love the way he put it all together and so I have cut and pasted it all and provided you the link to his site below.

Schoolyard Teacher, Mary Reed, sent me a "care package" that I want to share with you.
This is some of the contents I received in a large manila envelope via snail mail from the Saint Mary's Parish School in Westfield:
Sample student graph of Tree Color and Leaf Drop
Completed Worksheet focusing on Research questions of the Buds, Leaves and Global Warming project. This worksheet embedded the Julian Date Calendar on it to make it easy and concrete for students to do this calculation successfully.
Mary Sent these photos separately to contribute to the field site database. |
