I was recently reading the April 1, 2026 NSTA Blog, a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.

In this blog I read an article written by Jill Nugent. She wrote an article entitled "Spark Curiosity This Spring."

Citizen science refers to public participation in science. Opportunities for students to participate in authentic science practices can deepen their understanding of the world. One way to provide such opportunities is by incorporating citizen science experiences in the classroom and schoolyard during Citizen Science Month, this April.
