Wednesday, October 12th, 2022: Syracuse Academy of Science Third graders weren’t monkeying around on their first field trip of the school year. They took their knowledge from the classroom on animal classification to the Rosamond Gifford Zoo. Students became taxonomists for the day and classified various animals including amphibians, mammals, birds, fish, and reptiles. Students were thrilled to get outside and use their learning in an engaging, hands-on way!

However, we’re not done quite yet. The next step for the team is the Sectionals. Good luck, and go Atoms!
Wednesday, October 12th, 2022: During fire safety week, Syracuse Academy of Science had the pleasure of having firefighter Gilbert talk to the second graders. Firefighter Gilbert explored fire safety and procedures with the children in case of an emergency. He read the book "No Dragons for Tea" and allowed the atoms to see up close the fire safety equipment firefighters use daily. Mr. Gilbert has a child in second grade, so he was excited to share his profession and knowledge with atoms of the same age!
Thank you, Mr. Gilbert, for being an excellent guest speaker.
