On Tuesday, April 24, the
Chadron Middle School 5th graders enjoyed participating in many
activities during the 9th Annual Upper Niobrara White Natural
Resource District Conservation Day.
The students learned about how to conserve
water and how harmful pollutants can be to our water supply. They created an edible aquifer and enjoyed the fun snack. The other stations
dedicated time to teaching students about how to use a GPS, how birds feed
their young, noxious weeds, and different types of soil. The water rockets
station was a hit. By experimenting with levels of water in a pop bottle,
students created their own water rockets and competed against their peers to
see whose rocket traveled the farthest. This station also gave the students a
chance to cool down by getting sprayed with water!
The 5th graders
want to thank the Upper Niobrara White NRD and all of the presenters for
providing such a fun, educational day!
