Big Piney fire pictures


Bucket Brigade: The students were asked to hypothesize and then test their theories about which types of fuel would be most effective in starting fires.


Tinker Tree Derby: Students were asked to construct trees that had adaptations which would help them survive forest fires. The trees were then put to the test...

Here is my eighth grade group at Big Piney - we are creating a tableau imitating a healthy forest ecosystem.

Me teaching about the Mann Gulch Fire of 1949.

Day One: Learning about the scientific circle of logic and trying to determine if the matchstick forest will burn faster at high or low density tree populations.
