YSP Polar Post Cards

YSP Program Description:

The USC Young Scientists Program works in partnership with 5 USC community schools to engage more than 1400 elementary school students, 45 LAUSD teachers, and 5 principals through a broad repertoire of science curriculum. YSP TA's are placed at each school presenting hands-on science labs to fourth and fifth grade classrooms. YSP brings scientific laboratory experiences directly to students and their teachers with the goal of supplementing current science instruction, complimenting LAUSD and state grade level science learning standards, strengthening science literacy and promoting interest in scientific careers.

One of YSP’s primary objectives is to increase science activities for a larger number of our neighborhood children as a means to encourage them to consider careers in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) and to apply what they are learning in the classroom to the real world. Additional outcomes are that our USC undergraduate students learn how to become successful mentors, gain valuable teaching experience, and learn how to directly respond to the needs of the schools, communities and families.

PolarTREC Outreach

Students created their own Arctic postcard that was taken up to the Arctic. Students will receive their cards back through their teacher at the end of the summer. On the front of the post card is a picture of the Toolik Field station and its location in the Northern most part of Alaska and a demonstration of where it is in the Arctic Circle. On the postcard, each student wrote a question they had about the Arctic journey and research that will be done in Toolik and they drew themselves as a polar scientist.

Which schools and which grades participated?
