Third Grade Visits Streams

On September 26, third-grade students from Westshire and Samuel Morey visited two sites on Jacob's Brook in Orford. Then they took the bus to Westshire, where they ate lunch and visited Westshire Beach at the confluence of the Ompompanoosuc River and School Brook in West Fairlee. Students recorded observations, measured stream velocities, and discussed evidence of erosion and sediment deposition.
