Today the students had their last scientific adventure of their two-week journey at the Thomas M. Maynard Ecology Center. It is a Cambridge Public Schools science education resource center located near the Fresh Pond Reservation in West Cambridge. The Center is set up as an informal science-learning environment and is used as a base for students to explore the surrounding Fresh Pond Reservation and Black’s Nook Pond.
The students learned about various components affecting the ecosystem, including erosion control and water treatment. They investigated indoor stream tables using sod, sand, clay, sponges, and soil to create an environment that would contain a soil containment in a stream.
The ExxonMobil Bernard Harris Summer Science Camp Staff looks forward to seeing you tomorrow in the Raytheon Amphitheater at 12:45 p.m. for graduation!
