One of our favorite yearly science projects here at TSMSOC has officially kicked off!

Students, 2nd through 6th grade, participate in the citizen science program called Monarch Watch, which focuses on the monarch butterfly, its habitat, and its fall migration from North America to overwintering grounds in Mexico. At Wash U's Butterfly Garden, students have learned and practiced how to catch a monarch, place a small tag on it, and then release it. These tagged butterflies may help scientists better understand monarch movement patterns and population dynamics.

Within the last few decades, scientists have documented serious declines in monarch populations. Some even predict that the species may be headed for extinction. When students learn that there are ways they can help, they are motivated! Another way to help is to plant milkweed, since it's the one and only food source of monarch caterpillars. We are raising monarch caterpillars in the classroom, and we nourish them with plenty of milkweed! We will release them when they emerge as butterflies!

Last week our 6th graders arrived at the Butterfly

Last week our 6th graders arrived at the Butterfly Park just as stewards of the garden were releasing butterflies to begin their migration.

They kindly gave our students the opportunity to do the releasing themselves. This is one of those authentic experiential learning experiences that we are always preaching about here at TSMSOC.

We are so fortunate to use Forest Park as our outdoor classroom every day!

Our 2nd and 3rd grade students hosted a very festive Book Bistro this morning!

Each student chose a different book for their appetizer, main course and dessert. They would then explore the book and decide if the book was delicious, yummy, okay or yucky!

What a creative way for our students to explore different books and book genres! 📚

The “Philadelphia Wireman” is the working name

The “Philadelphia Wireman” is the working name given to an unknown artist that is responsible for creating approximately 1200 wireframe sculptures in the Philadelphia area circa 1982. To this day his identity remains unknown.

Our students are learning about the concept of design and creating a composition that is visually pleasing and they are using The Philadelphia Wireman as their inspirtation.

Check out the beginning stages of their sculptures!
