This past Tuesday, November 6th, the third grade class presented the “Animals of Wyoming” Science Fair. Students diligently worked on these projects and dioramas for about 3 weeks prior to the event. Family, friends and schoolmates came to the classroom where each third grader presented their findings and impressive 3D dioramas.
This research project supported the third grade Ecology unit in science. During this unit, we have been studying taxonomy, habitats, plants and animals native to our region. Students and parents alike enjoyed learning about the beauty and truth behind these animals of Wyoming.
