Riverdale ES students studied erosion with @GreenKidsANS and designed structures to slow down runoff. We put each of the models to test! Fun learning in action.

These 5th Graders went with us @GreenKidsANS to evaluate the health of their local creek! They decided it needs improvement and are motivated to help. Way to go Ritchie Park!

@es_flower 5th graders and teachers enjoyed being outside to learn about the Chesapeake Bay Watershed with the talented @ANSgina. We are grateful for our partnership with @GreenKidsANS as we strive to become @MAEOE_MD Green School!

There's nothing like learning outside on a beautiful fall day! Thank you, @GreenKidsANS & @ANSgina and your team for leading the 5th graders through a water quality study @ the stream & Jessica's Pond in @es_flower neighborhood. Mapping out the pond & surrounding area - fun, too!

The Greenkids program came to work with our 3rd graders today. Can you see the amazement in their eyes? @pgcps @GreenSchoolsAll @ANSgina

GreenKids brought the Caterpillar Road Show to Riverdale ES @PGCPS_RES ! Curios 3rd graders enjoyed every bit of it and had so many questions for the amazing GWU scientists. @pgcps @ANStweets @RESMrsMartinez

Students @es_flower had fun learning about how pollution gets from our neighborhoods into waterways .

[Melissa A. King, MLS - School Librarian 📚 @Cre8tiveLib]

Thank you @GreenKidsANS & @ANSgina for leading an @es_flower preservice PD with all staff outside in our beautiful courtyard. We learned about the @MAEOE_MD Green School program, reflected on ways in which we enjoy nature, and planted seeds of hope for the new school year.

We had so much fun joining @es_flower last week for a big community builder activity to kick off a new school year of Green School programming! @Cre8tiveLib @ANSgina
