OQMS 6th graders have been learning all about the life cycle of plants and making connections to what we learned about bees/pollination from Mr. Pawlak! Thanks @SD113a_EduFdn for the grant that made this possible! #sd113a

It was a beautiful day for 6th grade to walk and explore the prairie path at Lemont’s Heritage Center. There we learned about honeybees from Mr. Mark Pawlak and got to see an active hive! We appreciate Mr. Pawlak sharing his time, knowledge, and equipment. #sd113a
