Explora`s EPA Planting Seeds of STEM and Stewardship grant has us working with community schools and partners in many ways! Explora delivered a lesson on watersheds to students at Moriarty Elementary, Alvarado Elementary, and Valle Vista Elementary. It included a watershed activity from the Asombro Institute for Science Education`s "New Mexico Climate Champions" curriculum. Explora added a real-world connection to the pinto bean farm terracing outside near Moriarty, waffle gardens at Zuni Pueblo, and field grading near South and North Valley acequias.
