Amazing day yesterday @KawaharaLab @FloridaMuseum thank you so much for the inspiration!
Yesterday we welcomed @UFEarthSystems Scientist in Every Florida School teachers to the @FloridaMuseum @KawaharaLab with some butterfly collecting and specimen pinning practice. Field work and collections help us understand the biodiversity around us and how it is changing.

While cleaning up their Yom HaShoah display, students were surprised to see that the banners had faded into a similar pattern like The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas. One of them said, “Miss! It’s like a message for remembering!” They have such heart @john_boyne @HorizonAcadFL

The Great Fossil Find in action! Students worked to understand the role of paleontologists in helping us know the history of Earth through radiometric dating of fossils. I was able to share my own experience at the Montbrook site in Williston with them too! @HorizonAcadFL

6th Grd did so great today debating the likelihood of deposition & erosion in a meandering river as we covered Rock Cycle standards. Sediment composition & strength of the current were just some of the higher order questions they brought to the debate. Awesome! @HorizonAcadFL
