BOCES 4 Science is happy to announce its newest way to help science educators meet New York State Science Learning Standards: Science Investigation Kits and Workshops!

One of the first-grade classes in Kendall Central School District had a litter of bunnies visit. The objective for the Performance Expectation is to learn that offspring look similar to, but not exactly like their parents. This litter had enough variability to prove that. Students had a lot of fun petting and playing with the baby bunnies. - B4S Teacher Kathryn Jensen
