-p Spilygy Tymoo, Wgrm Springs, Oregon P age August 22, 2012 ECE youth gain Head Start on Science I n e N atural Resources Branch recently brought les sons in science to youth at the Early Childhood Education Center. The lessons focused on river life. The young students ranged in age from 3 to 12. Lisa Dubisar, fisheries bi ologist for the- Environmen tal Education and Outreach program, taught the classes. She started the lesson by showing the kids pictures of a river, illustrating important habitat components like large wood jams, overhanging veg etation, and boulders for fish and other aquatic organisms. She then showed the kids aquatic insects like stone flies, an important food source for fish. The insects were col lected from Shitike Creek. “W ith the older kids I would explain more in depth and talk about what a biolo gist does,” Dubisar said. “A lot o f the kids were fairly young but it’s never too early to start getting them inter ested in the outdoors and in science.” Kirstin Ann Hisatake, di rector o f Early Childhood Education, commented, “We appreciate Natural Resources providing this important ex- (( We’r e trying to get more kids interested in science... and in careers potentially related to natural resources.” Courtesy of Lisa Dubisar/Natural Resources LaRiah Stevens shows the river board during the recent ECE Natural Resources day. posure to science in their en vironment. “As the future stewards of our Natural Resources, pro viding children the opportu nity to interact with and learn about their environments is an essential part o f school readiness.” The goal of the Environ mental Education and Out reach program is to help chil dren gain a better understand ing o f their natural world, and to make a connection about their role in it so they can make a positive action in their community. “Basically we’re trying to get more kids interested in the outdoors, science, and in ca reers potentially related to n atural reso u rces,” said Hisatake. This coming fall the pro gram will have an active role in fifth-grade at Warm Spring Elementary, when the project “Salmon, Streams, and Sci ence” will be underway. 3¡ Head Start classes, orientation in Sept.
