Brine Shrimp and Wonderment...


Last week the 6th grade packed up our bags, boats and a bus and headed out to the Great Salt Lake. While the day began and ended with a downpour, the middle was packed with great science and loads of fun!

 We were able to look at brine shrimp and algae up close under scopes and work on our observation skills!
 We also went on a life hunt! Here we looked on the beach and in the water for signs of life.
 At one station we got our first experience with the school's kayaks! Some of us were a bit nervous because it was our first time ever on boats, but we all had a blast!


It was great to be out in nature, seeing amazing things and learning a ton!
