Estuaries Professional Development - Grades 5-12
These resources focus on the different types of estuaries, the kinds of organisms found in estuaries, and how they have adapted to survive in these unique environments. These materials also highlight the important work being done to monitor, protect and restore estuaries. Lesson plans are provided, along with case studies from teachers describing how the lessons were implemented in their classrooms. Many of the resources provided here were created in partnership with the National Science Teachers Association.
EstuaryLive Activities - Grades K-12
All the activities listed below complemented EstuaryLive broadcasts from past years. Because of their usefulness, outside of the EstuaryLive program, we are now evaluating and revising them. Why? We want to enhance their quality and provide educators with better packaged materials that will lead your students to deep understanding of estuaries. In the mean time, please contact us if you wish to get a copy of any of original lesson plans.
