Project Based Learning (PBL) gives John McCandless students many exciting opportunities to discover the ways science impacts the environments and communities that surround us. Last week, 3rd Graders started their first PBL unit with a walking field trip to the Calaveras River. Students wrote down what they noticed about their local waterways, and they'll use these notes to continue studying biodiversity and ecosystems.
