A busy week of field work, geology learning, and camaraderie with thirty eight, bilingual, 6th graders of the French American School of Puget Sound!
Thank you Mrs. Joubert (Sciences), Ms.  Duff (English), Ms.  Cuna (Mathematics), Mr.  Blankenship (Arts) and Mr. Réa (Technology) for your intellectual curiosity, organizational skills, and sense of humor while exploring the geology of Washington with such an incredibly energetic group of students! Check the images below to find out some of the scientific questions the students addressed on our week-long trip.

January 10 and 17 2017
Kamiakin Middle School, Kirkland, Washington

Mrs. K. Dougherty, Math and Science, 6th grade classes
Arts and Sciences - The geological process of  sedimentation
"Making sediments and drawing them as we learn about the process of sedimentation"


Four creative sessions with Ms. Dougherty and her 64 6th graders!
​
The students ran a sedimentation experiment over the course of 2 weeks. We discussed sedimentation as one of the processes in the context of interactions between the atmosphere, the geosphere, the hydrosphere and the biosphere.
After  setting-up the experiment, students took time to draw it to compare their final results to the initial conditions that they had chosen.  
They  made a series of observations before, during, and after they created sediments in a bottle. And they used their observations to fuel a  discussion and proposed hypotheses that could explain their results.
Finally,  the whole group compared their results and hypotheses to natural examples of sediment deposits in various, natural settings - lake deposits, ocean deposits and river deposits.
