Classes in the Creek
Seventh grade science classes have been learning about ways to identify the quality of a water source through biological and chemical indicators. Wearing boots, the students waded right into their study of Pimmit Run. They used nets and identification keys to identify various macroinvertebrates and tested pH, nitrate, and phosphate levels. The data collected here will be compared to data gathered at the stream they visit during their upcoming trip to Caroline Furnace.
