Shiloh Science teacher, Kendra Saddoris, welcomed Partnership in Parenting (PIP) to the Shiloh Prairie last week for their October group connection. The children used all their senses to explore the many textures, sights, smells and even tastes that the prairie had to offer. Each child collected treasures to take home to show their friends. The PIP-Squeaks also picked out fall books and pumpkins before leaving. Thank you, Mrs. Saddoris!
Our own Mrs. Evans wrote a blog post for a collaboration between The GLOBE (Global Learning & Observations to Benefit the Environment) and the US Forest Service. Her article is titled "Using Natural Inquirer and GLOBE resources to teach water quality to middle school students."
"I was to write about a topic from the US Forest Service publication "Natural Inquirer" and then tie it to one of the GLOBE protocols. You can read it below.
Another opportunity arose from this one: I will be virtually talking about my project on Friday, November 4 at the GLOBE North American Regional Meeting. I will do a 7 minute lightning talk (brief synopsis of my project), then be available afterwards to talk more in depth about my experience with those that are interested.
To learn more about GLOBE (A Worldwide Science and Education Program) go to globe.gov. "

The annual Halloween story writing and party did not disappoint in Ms. Boland’s 6th, 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade ELA classes. Each student was assigned to complete a story of varying lengths. These could be scary, gory or even funny. After at least two days of in class writing some students shared their stories and all shared in some goodies. Students writing and enjoying it? What kind of witchery is Ms. Boland up to?
Things got batty in the science hallway!
