Project Summary
Our final project was the construction of two dioramas reflecting the history and future of the Rio Salado. Through research and several field trips to the site, we were able to lay the foundation as to how we wanted the model to look. Our goal this semester was to create something artistic, but that was still educational. The children are hoping that by looking at these models, people will be able to understand the work and effort that was put into this project to give them what they see today.

Highlights for the year:
Over the course of the semester Science Club focused on the diverse wildlife, terrain, and climates of the desert. We were able to study more in-depth the changing of the seasons, native vegetation and wildlife in Arizona. The highlights of this semester were fieldtrips to Rio Salado where the children were able to apply what they learned through various activities and the construction of our project.
