We will be taking a science field trip to the Butler Creek Greenway Trail this week. The lovely staff at the Johnson Creek Watershed Council will teach us about the indicators for water quality. Students will have a chance to test the water in Bear and Butler Creek for dissolved oxygen, pH, turbidity and temperature. We will also have a chance to survey the insect and animal life in the stream to see if it is a health place for animals to live. Please make sure your child is wearing clothes that can get muddy and wet because we will be near the stream and handling water samples.
