LENAPE SPOTLIGHT
SCIENCE
7th Gr Science
7th Grade Science at Lenape introduced students to citizen science project eBird after STEM engineering a bird's nest from natural materials. Citizen science allows for student's recorded observations of local birds and researched species which were then added to the global data base connecting to real world science. Ebird is a citizen science project and can be a powerful tool for learning, according to ebird state coordinator because "it not only incorporates various science standards, observation skills, as well as math and statistics, but it is a great way for students to learn and contribute to the global community" especially using our new 1:1 technology.
