3rd Grade Embarks on their Connecticut Studies!

We are so fortunate to live and study along the Connecticut shoreline. The third graders have become experts in the ecosystems of Long Island Sound. Here, a student practices sorting and classifying the "life" in a small area in order to learn how scientist conduct population sampling in the field.
Lucky TCS students don't have to just practice lab methods indoors, they get to apply them in real world field work experiences! We had an amazing field trip to Grass Island in Tuesday and have lots of data to analyze over the next few days!
