This Year - InSciEd Out at Lincoln K-8
The InSciEd Out team is excited to report on another fantastic year in partnership with Lincoln K-8 Choice School. Curriculum module activities ranged from scientist question and answer sessions with the kindergartners in "What is a Scientist" to partnerships with students through GATEway and Regional Science Fairs. Out team (through STEM Village) was able to check out science equipment and bring science partners to all classes at Lincoln. Each grade in Lincoln was able to run one or more InSciEd Out units. The 4/5s developed their skills and knowledge through the zebrafish breeding project, and some of these students will serve on next year's chemical response teams responsible for maintaining the fish health and water quality of the fish tanks at Lincoln.
We would like to remind you of some of the accomplishments our school was able to achieve this year. 83% of Lincoln's uppers students entered the science fair, and 42 Lincoln partners, teachers and students will be presenting at the International Conference on Zebrafish Development and Genetics in Madison in June. Corey Dornack was named Toshiba Science Teacher of the Year at the Rochester Regional Science Fair. The new Zebrafish Lab and science room were completed, funded by Lowe's. There are two Lincoln projects (including 4 current and 2 former Lincoln students) under final revisions for publication in scientific journals. Lincoln's outstanding work has been recognized during visits from US Senator Amy Klobuchar and Minnesota Education Commissioner Brenda Casselius.
Each of these accomplishments is a reflection of your commitment to science education and your dedication to expanding student opportunities. Thank you for making this all possible and we look forward to working with you next year and building an even stronger partnership. If you have any questions about the InSciEd Out partnership, please contact information@insciedout.org or one of the InSciEd Out - Lincoln contacts: Jim Sonju, Andi Harmon, Cathy Nathan or Maddy Hammerlund, Volunteer Coordinator for InSciEd Out.
