"When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world."

~John Muir

For Earth Day, scientists will explore the most serious problems facing the Earth today. They will research environmental problems and determine which problem they will further investigate in order to educate their peers. This year, scientists will create a group presentation with a poster about their environmental issue and share their research with their class. They will then have the opportunity to further educate other students by sharing their work with the Wheeler Community!
