| Miller Perry Third Graders Visit Clyde Austin 4-H Camp in Greeneville |
The Third Graders at Miller Perry Elementary spent the day on Friday, April 17th at the Clyde Austin 4-H Camp in Greeneville. It was a wonderful day full of amazing science experiences including canoeing, zip lining and bridge building. Several bridges met the criteria of holding up at least 30 pounds of weight. Canoeing and zip lining taught each child the value of working together as well as understanding concepts such as force and motion. We also learned about Tennessee wildlife and fossils. Pictured are Elias Carter, whose bridge built with his partner did hold 30 pounds, Noah Malik and his dad canoeing into shore and Mr. J.R., one of our camp advisors helping students to zip line. Our field trip to 4-H camp helps us learn how science works in everyday experiences!
