Third grade students at Steins Pillar join partnership with Delta Waterfowl to create mallard nests for the Crooked River Wetlands
As the weather becomes more moderate and the sunshine invites young scholars outside, many classes are participating in school projects, while basking in the lambent radiance of a spring day.
Last week, a classroom of third graders were immersed in a project that resulted in the culmination of creating a number of mallard houses. The project was a partnership between Steins Pillar Elementary students, the City of Prineville and Delta Waterfowl.
Delta Waterfowl, which was founded as a research organization, is The Duck Hunters Organization, which is a leading conservation group founded at the famed Delta Marsh in Manitoba, Canada, with its United States headquarters in Bismarck, North Dakota.
