3rd grade takes a field trip to Lake Wallace

It was a gorgeous October day, and 180 3rd graders agreed!

8 BHS students, Mr. Clark and Ms. Levy hosted all of the 3rd graders in two "waves," exploring the life in the water, reveling in the colors of autumn leaves, and writing compelling letters with rich language to convince residents of the desert southwest to come to Belchertown to visit!

All agreed that we live in a beautiful place, worth celebrating (and that it was great to get out for some Science!)

Scooping for Science!

Sort and identify

Let's take a closer look at that one!

Scientists, getting right into their studies

Yep ... that's a snail

Choose, identify and sketch ... now that's documentation!
