Hillendale Fifth Grade Visits
Burrow's Run Preserve

Students participated in two different programs led by guides from Ashland. In the aquatic ecology program, students used nets to collect plant and animal life from the Burrow's Run stream. Students also learned about what we can do to keep our waterways clean. Students particularly enjoyed nature photography where they learned some basics about photography. During this program students worked in small groups to take pictures of nature with Polaroid cameras. Each student framed one of his/her favorite pictures and wrote an accompanying haiku. Even though it rained, the spirit of our exploration was not dampened (maybe just a bit chilled).
