Canyon Diablo Investigation

Canyon Diablo Investigation

Canyon Diablo originates from the blue mesas in the distance and flows through a canyon cut into Kaibab Limestone to the Little Colorado River.

This past spring, the STAR school students investigated Canyon Diablo, Sandy Canyon, and the land around the STAR school. The students found many things from the plant world and animal world, and they learned about local history, culture, and the Earth’s geological history. There existed much excitement over what was discovered, observed & learned which is evidenced in the student work.

This is an example of our concept map that we made after we returned from Canyon Diablo.

This is one of our primary student’s science journal entries. Notice the date is January 17, 2002.
