Over 70 students attended our first STEM Lecture.
STEM Workshop on Hydroponics
STEM Lecture - Tues, Oct 12 - Patterns in Biogeography
There are a remarkable number of similarities between species in the eastern United
States and East Asia. Closely related species are found in a broad array of life forms,
including reptiles and amphibians, crustaceans, mammals, insects, and many plants. This
talk by Peter Lynch is an exploration of the circumstances that could have resulted in these
remarkable similarities. Students will have the opportunity, in advance, to observe and draw a variety of similar species from the two regions from images provided. We will explore theories that might explain this pattern in a slide show illustrating global patterns.
