3rd Grade Sap Boiling Mr. Haupert's long-running tradition of tapping the sugar maples and making maple syrup with the students continues! Over the course of two weeks, the third graders made the daily trek out to the Buckingham Friends Meeting cemetery to measure and collect the sap. Using their math skills to calculate the volume of sap, the students had to determine which tree yielded the most sap each day. As a culmination of the project, Mr. Haupert and the kids enjoyed a bonfire and day outside boiling down the sap. It took 5 gallons of sap to make a cup and a half of delicious maple syrup. The kids undoubtedly have a newfound appreciation of what goes into that delicious pancake topping now!
