The Florida Integrated Science Center’s 8th Annual Open House and Earth Science Day<\/a> for Fourth Graders:<\/p>\n

This year’s theme is: “Be a Citizen Scientist.” Scientists explore, investigate, experiment, monitor, record, analyze, observe, measure, collaborate, map and report. There is a scientist inside each of us. Come learn and see what scientists do. Learn how you, a citizen scientist, can learn more about the world around you.<\/p>\n

The USGS will host displays to show the general public and visiting fourth graders what kind of work USGS scientists do.<\/p>\n

Explore the exciting world of scientific research and meet our scientists and staff. We will have exhibits that highlight geology, coastal processes, hurricanes, tsunamis, coral reefs, native fish and wildlife, sinkholes, ground water, and bacteria.<\/p>\n

This event will take place on two days at the FISC St. Petersburg Office. The first day is for the “USGS Open House for the General Public” Wednesday, November 29, 2006, from 3 to 6PM.<\/p>\n

The “Annual Earth Science Day for Fourth Graders” will take place Thursday, November 30, 2006, from 8:30AM to 1PM.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
