A Trip to the Benjamin Franklin Parkway

Last week our group went on a field trip to the Ben Franklin Parkway, along the Schuylkill River. We observed the statues and the sculptures along the Parkway. As we walked, we picked up leaves from the trees and later identified what types of trees were planted in that area. In Logan Circle the students collected water from the fountain to be tested. After our long walk we got a chance to go into the Rodin Museum, where we observed the sculptures.

Here are some of the maps made by the students that show some of the features that we saw and visited along the Parkway:
