Young Naturalist Awards
The Young Naturalist Awards is a competition for students in grades 7-12 to promote participation and communication in science (specifically in astronomy, ecology, Earth science, or biology).
The Young Naturalist Awards program invites you to plan and conduct your own scientific investigation, one that will include observations, questions, predictions, trips into the field to gather data, and analysis. You are not expected to make a new scientific discovery. However, your investigation should provide you with a new understanding about your question. Write up an essay (no longer than 20 pages!) about your observations that includes tables, charts, or graphs and artwork or photographs that help illustrate your findings. Need help planning a project? Check out this link.
Essays can be mailed to the Museum beginning December 1, 2010, and received no later than March 1, 2011. Print a copy of the entry form to include with your essay. Then mail your items to:
Young Naturalist Awards Administrator
NCSLET
American Museum of Natural History
Central Park West at 79th Street
New York, NY 10024
Be sure to read through the rules for submitting your essay.
A panel of judges will review each essay, and twelve winners, two from each grade, will be chosen. Winners will receive cash awards. In May 2011, they will be invited, along with a parent or guardian, on an expense-paid trip to New York City to attend an award ceremony at the Museum and to take a behind-the-scenes tour. In addition, their essays will be published on the Museum's Web site. Check out eligibility here.

Teen Thursday - Ornaments and Memory Books
We had a lot of messy fun this week at Teen Thursday! The teens used blank ornaments as their canvas and created some really unique tree hangings! The Memory Books were also made using special papers, brads, feathers, markers, and other bits and pieces.
