Fourth-grade students visited the Marcoux Family Farm, LLC, and made several connections to their sap lab unit. Miss Bonnie taught us about all the learning, equipment, and hard work that goes into making maple syrup. The kids toured the sugarbush, checked the lines, and then saw the evaporator be lit. They had questions, and Bonnie had answers. Fourth grade could have stayed all day to learn more. The sweetest part of the trip (beyond tasting the syrup) was connecting what students had already learned to what Bonnie was teaching them.
