Summer Ecology Project Teaches Kids Through Fun Study
A summer ecology program uses hands on hikes, beach days, and classroom lessons to engage third and fourth graders. Teachers, aides, and specialists from Purdue and Madison County guide students in collecting specimens, identifying insects like millipedes, and learning conservation. The project aims to turn observation into action, encouraging students to become part of the solution rather than merely observers.
