High Touch, High Tech Visits McGinnis Woods

//  by 

Science Made Fun at McGinnis WoodsThe 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade children had so much fun when we had our in house field trip with High Tech, High Touch.

Plant and Animal Cycles

Scientist E came prepared with lots of great centers for us to explore and learn all about Plant and Animal Life Cycles. At our first station we were able to stamp out the life cycles of a frog, a chicken, a beetle, a butterfly, and even a grandpa. The kids loved the activity.

Planting Seeds & Watching Them Grow

Next, we planted grass, wildflower and clover seeds in our very own terrariums and have been able to watch them grow without even watering them this week…. Amazing. We also explored the stages of a beetle’s life from larvae to pupa to adult.

Learning About Life Cycles In-School Field TripLife Cycle Puzzles

Finally, we went to another center with life cycle puzzles to build, life cycle models to explore and magazines to read. Scientist E and her many learning centers helped our students learn all about the circle of life in unique, memorable hands-on ways. We are looking forward to her next visit!
