This #AdminProfessionalsDay, we recognize 3 staff that Outdoor Lab simply could not function without. Meet Emily Kelly, Kelly Wilhelm & Roxanne Herzog. Admin professionals are often considered the "jill or jack of all trades". Get to know them: blog: bit.ly/2RZ2hNM

Today's Peace Week activity is Mental Health Day. During this time of uncertainty, be sure that you are taking care of yourself. Try some of these mental health resources. ow.ly/qeQr50zhbiK

Please note: one of our meal locations has changed. We will no longer be at Conifer H.S. We’re now at West Jeff Elementary. Same hours. Same policy: if you need a meal, you get it. We’re in this together. Jeffco strong. ❤️

On this day in 1876, Alexander Bell placed the world's first 📞 call. Before being called the telephone, Bell called it the "electrical speech machine." Like Bell, students should use their everyday language to explain something first, before linking them to scientific terms.

Meet Windy Peak intern, Ariana Miller! Outdoor Lab has helped her make connections with students & other interns. She hopes to get a better idea of what she would like to do after graduating while she's completing her internship. @AllWheatRidge #interns #InternationalWomensDay

Nothing compares to the confidence you get when you overcome fears & try something new. But these opportunities exist less for kids today. That’s where @Avid4Adventure, one of our sponsors, comes in. bit.ly/2TKJsPF.

Animal communication is a truly fascinating phenomenon! And very interesting to know that wolves have so many different dialects.
Did you know that wolves across the world speak in 21 different dialects, with differences depending both on species + location? Research shows that various canid species + subspecies have distinguishing repertoires or vocal fingerprints. (Sound on!) bit.ly/2CjFpjV

What is a snow moon?! How can we predict the PATTERNS that happen with the moon?! Like “peak of fullness” - where does it go and how does it come back?!? #ngss #ngsschat
A #SnowMoon will illuminate the night sky on Sunday, Feb. 9, reaching its peak of fullness at 2:33am ET. Be sure to bundle up and take a look! go.nasa.gov/31ATu8i
