Journey North

Journey North is a non-profit educational program that engages students and all citizen scientists in a global study of wildlife migration and seasonal change.

Participants share their own field observations with classmates

Journey North is the nation's premiere "citizen science" project for children. The general public is welcome to participate.

«Always choose the most difficult way - there you will not find competitors»

We knew about the project “Tulip”s Garden” from our English teachers and decided to

take part in this interesting project.

Our hypothesis

Our hypothesis was the following:

Our Tulip’s Test Garden will

give us a connection with

English-speaking citizen scientists

Welcome Citizen Scientist Gardeners

Doing an experiment

We test our hypothesis by doing an experiment

Our Experiment

We do our report every week

We are responsible for each part of work:

• To find Red Empire Tulips

• To learn it’s structure

• To draw or make them

• To plant them and investigate the conditions

• To make a report

• To connect with other project’s participants

• To show you our project and invite to collaborate!

We are at the Maphttp://www.learner.org/jnorth/tulip/fall2012/update101112.html

The First in Russia

InvestigatingWe have seen a tulip bulb . Hold one and examine it.

How would you describe what it looks like?

Scientific ObservationsWe're going to bury our tulip bulbs in the garden. But wait! What's a bulb? Let's

take a look. Our bulb is unique. Measure our bulb and draw a picture of it.

It is a tulip bulb

cut in cross

section

What is a Bulb? What's Inside?Carefully cut open a bulb and look inside. Use a magnifying glass if you can. What do you see?

A bulb is a specialized plant storage structure that contains everything the plant needs to survive winter and grow in the spring.

When we cut open our bulb, we can notice that it is kind of wet and a little juicy. A bulb's thick, fleshy leaves, called scales store food and water to keep the bulb alive in cold and dry conditions.

A Closer Look

A bulb contains everything the plant needs for winter survival and spring growth. As a scientist, we explore our bulb and predict what its parts will become.

0ur Competition“The Best Tulip”

We Plant Our Tulips

Our connection with English-speaking citizen scientists

Keep ExploringOur bulb will grow underground this winter. When spring arrives it will become a beautiful tulip plant with a big red flower!

We are at the beginning! But we enjoy our Project!

We hope you will join our TULIP’S GARDEN!
