JASON Learning Trip
June 17-21, 2024, Mrs. Coffman accompanied Olivia See and Ryleigh Jordan on the JASON Learning trip to Madera Canyon, Arizona. While there, they were guided by the Bug Chicks, Kristie Reddick, and Jessica Honaker, and studied the desert biodiversity. Each morning started with a hike to bird watch. After breakfast, they worked on their science project for the week. Olivia studied birds and the different species in the canyon, Ryleigh studied why scorpions are fluorescent at night under UV light and Mrs. Coffman studied the leaf density of the Arizona Sycamore near dry and wet creek beds. At the end of the week, each presented their hypothesis and conclusion to the group.
The group also visited the San Xavier District to learn about the Riparian Restoration Project and the Biosphere 2. In addition, they also got to see the magnificent sunset over the Santa Rita Mountains, learn about some of the stars and galaxies, and see a full moon on Summer Solstice. The trip would end with the electricity going out on the first day of the Monsoon season. The double rainbow they saw over the mountains was the icing on the cake, along with lifelong friendships that were made.
Special thanks go out to JASON Learning for this awesome experience, Jude Kesl, The Bug Chicks, and the wonderful staff at the Santa Rita Experimental Range (University of Arizona).
