    My name is Kate. I'm a middle school science teacher and have been working to introduce my students on citizen science projects this year.

    I am also from Colorado. I do this project along with the Serengeti with my three grandchildren including the four year old who has Mosaic Down Syndrome. He loves animals especially his el-e-phants and chimps. All three kids (and especially the 9 year old) have an eagle eye and when I am unsure of a species I just yell for the 9 year old--who nails it and then says "Nana that was so easy." Doing these citizen science projects is a great way to keep the kids immersed in science, nature and projects.
