Something's
fishy at Prairie Middle School
The students in the fifth, sixth and seventh grades at Prairie Middle School spent three weeks studying the habitat and life cycle of salmon and steelhead. With some help from the Dworshak Fish and Wildlife Services, the students learned about the exterior and interior anatomy as well as the differences in the life cycles of a wild and hatchery fish. They studied the biomes of these fish and the affects of humans on their habitat. The Fish and Wildlife Services offered to provide fish to dissect. They also sent three people from the Dworshak Hatchery to assist and demonstrate. The students were able to get a hands-on experience with dissection. They were able to identify the external and internal anatomy as well as procedures for dissection. It was a great learning experience. 12-Grangeville, here, 4:30 p.m. 14-Lewis County, there, 4:30 p.m. 19-Timberline, there, 4:30 p.m. 21-Genesee, there, 4:30 p.m. 23-Troy, here, 2 league games, 11 a.m. 25-Grangeville, there, 4:30 p.m. 28-Timberline, here, 4:30 p.m. 5-Culdesac, here, 4:30 p.m. 7-14-District at Kendrick 19-21-State at Caldwell |
