“I have so many favorite science experiences! One cool science experience was when I was standing right in the middle of the Snoqualmie River. I was thinking about how my 35 water temperature loggers were recording data all across the Snoqualmie River watershed at that very second!”
“One of my favorite science activities is creating a cool graph that helps everyone understand a story from a big mess of data.”
