Middle schoolers can get wild with us at Sheldrake this Thu 10/8, as we set out to do pond study! We’ll use nets to collect specimens from the pond; then, we’ll study our findings using magnifiers and high-end microscopes! Ponding is always a popular field trip for our Mamaroneck 5th graders, so get ready for some squeals and exclamations. We never know what we might find!
