6th Grade Watershed Field Trip

I have attended the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh for the last two years. I will be entering my junior year pursuing a Bachelor Degree of Science with a major in Environmental Studies. My career interests entail green energy and natural resource management. I was a young child when I started attending a summer camp program that emphasized nature and environmental conservation—ever since I have made outdoor activities into hobbies and continued interest in environmental sustainability. The University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh focuses on sustainability through green building, alternative and solar energy, and curbing pollution.

“Only communities located downstream in a watershed need to be concerned about how the water resources are managed in the watershed.”

In conclusion, I think that I would be a great student to take on this special opportunity field trip to the Creek and Kettering University. Going on this trip, my EDP careers would benefit from this, although I don’t have very much past experience I am ready to learn, and I will make sure that all my work is caught up. So, finally, I hope that you enjoyed this essay and really take me into consideration of being one of your eighth grade students that you take with you on the special water testing field

At the end of the program, each member completes a capstone project that reflects what they’ve learned throughout the training and improves stormwater management in their community

The event was the first phase of a stormwater runoff project to improve the water quality of the Wabash River.

The Showcase of Applied Learning is an opportunity for 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th Grade Davenport Community School District students to showcase what they have learned about environmental topics such as: water pollution, watersheds, wetlands, ecosystems, invasive species, waste and energy, and is also an opportunity for students to educate others about our personal impacts on local and global natural resources.

The Water and Environmental Technology major is a newer program, which made me a bit concerned at first. However, I have talked to and heard from present and past students at Thaddeus whom despite this being a newer program have still received help from many sources and it doesn’t seem to hinder or have hindered them in any way while being a student or getting a job in the profession. The video explained that there is a lot to learn concerning water systems, water treatment, and distribution of water, wastewater treatment, how it’s conveyed, water quality, and the environment. I love the environment and I think it would be very cool to learn about the processes concerning our water and how the environment is involved. I am also

“Jennings Environmental Education Center is one of several state parks specifically dedicated to providing environmental education and interpretation to the community.” http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/stateparks/findapark/jennings/ Jennings Environmental Education Center is a 300-acre Pennsylvania state park. The Slippery Rock Watershed Coalition was formed in December 1994 to address the abandoned mine drainage impacting the Slippery Rock Creek Watershed. Over three-quarters of the park is covered by forest. These woodlands include stream valleys, upland forests, and wetlands, which provide diverse habitats for wildlife.

I chose to review the poster entitled Discovery of the Arkansas Darter in Cow Creek Watershed, Cherokee County, SE Kansas presented by Dr. James Whitney of Pittsburg State University. Dr. Whitney and others conducted a survey of the fish communities of the Cow Creek watershed in southeastern Kansas. A total of 29 sites were surveyed within the watershed which is highly modified as the result of agriculture. Sites were surveyed from February to November of 2017 using back pack electrofishing as well as seining. The Arkansas Darter (Etheostoma cragini), a state threatened species, was collected at 3 of the 29 sites during the study. Previously, the species was only known within the region from the Spring River mainstem and Shoal

As the school superintendents and surrounding staff, we need to notify our general city of what our plan of action is for our schools. It is essential that we get the word out to all teachers and faculty as soon as possible to go

Plastic bags, they’re used everywhere, over a million are used a day and trillions are used and thrown away yearly! They also can damage an area of land where the land can divide accessibility for water flowing into bigger bodies of water, otherwise known as watersheds. The watershed that flows through Greeley, CO is the Cache la Poudre River Watershed (CPRW). Watersheds provide us drinking water, water for agriculture, such as farming, and they even help with outdoor activities like canoeing and fishing. Watersheds are even a habitat for most animals and help our plants. Watersheds get damaged every day, and people are the reasoning behind it. To understand how humans impact these kind of situations, you must look deeper.

Runoff is a portion of the precipitation, snow melt, or irrigation water that occurs in uncontrolled surface streams, rivers, drains or sewers. It may be classified according to speed of appearance after rainfall or melting snow as direct runoff or base runoff, and according to source as surface runoff, storm interflow, or groundwater runoff.

They provide education facilities for public such as learning centre (classroom), or outdoor shelter in the education area, toilets located in the learning centre and in the car park, etc. The activities provided also very fun and visitors will enjoy learning in the wetland. They have designed some packaged to schoolchildren which are they can choose their own needs. These curriculum activities could encourage huge schoolchildren to visit the wetland. The public could attract with the curriculum activities provided in the wetland. These activities can increase the awareness of wetland conservation among children and

The Deep Creek Watershed project has expanded from 29,813 acres to 58,494 acres and now include parts of East Orange township of Sioux, Caledonia township of O’Brien, Marcus township of Cherokee counties and Northeast Plymouth County. Funds are available for producers who farm in the Deep Creek Watershed to demonstrate voluntary water quality improvement efforts in the Deep Creek Watershed. Funds are available through the demonstration project for No-Till/Strip-till, Subsurface P-Placement (P-Band), Nitrification Inhibitor (N-Serve), cover crops, denitrifying bioreactors, saturated buffers, and terraces/638s. On another note, the cost share for terraces in Deep Creek match the state’s rates at 50%, however, there is no waiting list to be approved!

This field trip is a history type and also science. It would be $3000 to rent two buses and fit the 3 digital literacy classes plus the chaperones. I think we would need 9 chaperones in total, so 1 chaperone for every 10 students. The entrance is ages 6-12 is $6 and ages 13 and older is $8. They say 6-anonymous. They don't say on their website how manypeople they can accommodate in one day. Our location from the Natural Bridge is located in Northern Virginia, three and a 8 minutes from us. It depends on the days you go there and there are many different actives, but one activity lasts one whole day you go. That one activity is an Artisan Call to Natural Bridge State Park. "Natural Bridge State Park sells handcrafted work that supports the
