Curiosity Carts

Concord 4th graders explore mobile carts that are loaded with resources about the natural history of the local environment.

CEF funding equipped each of Concord’s elementary schools with a curiosity cart packed with resources about the natural history of our local environment. The mobile carts are integral to teaching the 4th grade Ecosystem unit. Each activity in the cart contains background information, visual aides, and hands-on activities that include artifacts such as skulls, feathers, footprints and tree ‘cookies.’
