Here's what students have been discovering.

Sap  Everyone has a go at the auger as an educator from the Long Island Science Museum demonstrates how to tap our school tree.  Afterwards, while learning about Maple Syrup, a taste of the finished product was never so sweet -- or so interesting.

Rings and Layers  Together they tell how a tree has grown from year to year.

Straws   Well, tubes -- for carrying water and sap between leaves and roots.  A red oak dowel and some bubble solution demonstrates that trees really are connected from top to bottom.  

Master storyteller and Deasy favorite, David Gonzalez, returned to enthrall our students with his special brand of soulful playfulness.
