Reflection Activities

We need you! And your students' creative efforts!!
I am hoping that we can gather some student work to be displayed here at Children's Discovery Museum-- show visitors what BioSITE is all about!
We have a couple different opportunities to showcase BioSITE student work: First, we have a new exhibit opening in February titled "Out On A Limb". This exhibit is a celebration of trees...just our kind of celebration! So help us!!
We need poetry, creative writing, and just descriptive impressions of how your students think and feel about our precious green giants of field and forest! You can use the River of Words page in your journals or design your own page. Let me know if you can help!
Second- we need collections...nature collections. Also to be on display in "Out On A Limb". At our last teacher training we introduced this idea, by sharing treasures in a shoebox, letting individuals choose something special, and allowing time to draw in detail. This would also add so much to our upcoming exhibit- how our students are connecting to nature!!
And of course- in the spring we will be displaying BioSITE student work of all different kinds- so think about what your students or what your class as a whole might like to showcase.
We are looking forward to making a great showing of our 2009 BioSITE River Guardians.
