KENOSHA, Wis. (Tuesday, April 18. 2023) \u2013 Bose Elementary students in grades K-2 will visit UW-Parkside on Friday, April 28, 2023, to see their pollinator patch and learn about local environmental topics from university students and staff.<\/p>\n
This opportunity will allow students to see a pollinator patch in another area beyond their school grounds, and to hear from others about how to care for and learn about healthy and resilient habitats. In 2021, the Root-Pike Watershed Initiative Network (RPWIN) received a grant from SC Johnson that supported the installation and implementation of a Pollinator Patch Program<\/a> at Bose Elementary School<\/a>. This living outdoor classroom has been offering students educational opportunities since early 2022.<\/p>\n During their trip to UW-Parkside, Bose students will learn more about local pollinators, native plants and trees, and seasonal changes in the environment. Students will work with experts from RPWIN and UW-Parkside to test out a watershed model, complete soil analysis, learn how composting works, and build their own ecosystem models. These hands-on activities will further advance the students\u2019 knowledge of and appreciation for these important habitats.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13503,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"categories":[7],"class_list":["post-13502","news","type-news","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-district"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/bose\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/13502","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/bose\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/bose\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/bose\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13503"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/bose\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13502"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kusd.edu\/bose\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13502"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
