SUMMARY:FIELD TRIP: S.T.E.M. Exploration and Investigation
DESCRIPTION:EVENT DETAILS\nWe will have three S.T.E.M. experiences during our field trip\, and your children and you will be able to do them all! \nSoil Texture\nIn this program\, students will learn all about soil texture and how it can indicate how well the soil can hold nutrients and water that plants need to grow! Using soil sieves\, students will get to investigate and examine their soil samples. They will then use math to determine the composition of the soil and classify it with a Soil Texture Triangle Chart! \nLife Under a Log\nOur Life Under a Log program invites students to become investigators of nature. Students will put on their entomologist hats and head to the woods to discover a plethora of insects in their natural habitats. Students will investigate above\, below\, and inside a decomposing log for decomposers\, consumers\, and producers. They will learn about the interactions between insects within a certain ecosystem \, food webs\, and nature’s ability to recycle. This program gives students a look at the biodiversity of an ecosystem. Students will be able to bring insect specimens back to the S.T.E.M. building and use the DinoLite to analyze them more closely. Students will be able to see the external and possibly the internal structures an insect uses for survival\, growth\, behavior\, and reproduction. This program is a hands-on activity meant for students to connect with nature. Students will get dirty and will experience holding nature’s finest. \nTransits/Compass Mapping & Orienteering \n\nTransits: If your students need a real world example of slopes and erosion\, this program is a great addition to the classroom. Students will be instructed in how to use a transit level\, an optical instrument\, or a telescope\, complete with a built-in spirit level that is mounted on a tripod\, and is a great asset Lone Oaks Farm has for teaching slopes. Transit levels are used mainly in surveying to determine differences in surface or object height for construction projects\, farming or plumbing and utility installations where it is necessary to determine slope\, but they can be used to determine the relative position of lines and objects and provide readings of angles in precise measurements. Students will first establish a reference line\, with subsequent readings taken at various distances and use basic mathematical calculations to determine the difference from the data collected. Students will need to use teamwork to collect data to determine the angles of a slope using basic math and logic skills. Students will then learn how to take the collected data and translate the data to find the connection between slope of a landscape\, water runoff\, erosion\, and sediment control — bringing science and math to life. \nCompass Mapping & Orienteering: The world is a vast space of adventure and discovery but it can be overwhelming to find your place in the world when you’re young. In this program\, your students will learn vital map reading skills and navigation proficiencies\, all while using the math concepts from the classroom. Despite the popularity of the digital mapping programs\, paper maps are still widely used for many jobs and outdoor recreation. At the end of the program\, your students will use compasses and a map to navigate and find orienteering markers that will reinforce map navigation skills with a strong real-world visual and connection to maps. \n\nSUGGESTED AGE/GRADE\nThe suggested age/grade is kindergarten through high school students\, and adults. The programming is geared towards school age children and not as accommodating to younger children. \n\n\nDATES & TIMES\nWednesday\, October 15\, 2025\, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. \nLOCATION\nLone Oaks Farm – Middleton \nPRICE\nAdult – $11\nStudent – $11\nChild – $11 \nNOTES\nIf you have a person (ex: grandparent) attending the program\, but not participating\, please include that in the notes. \nPARKING\nParking is free at Lone Oaks Farm. \nREGISTRATION DEADLINE\nRegistration will remain open through Thursday\, October 9\, 2025\, at 12 p.m. CST or until spaces fill. Funds must be received by Thursday\, October 9\, 2025\, at 12 p.m. CST to be included with the group. \nWAIVER & RELEASE\nRead the field trip waiver and release form. \n  \nRefunds will not be issued after Thursday\, October 2\, 2025\, at 12 p.m. CST.
