Everything is connected! Come share this important message with 6 – 12th grade students in our Microscopic Marvels program. Through hands-on investigation of water quality and plankton, students discover the interactions between the living and non-living factors that make up a healthy estuary ecosystem. Students spend time out on the research marsh and in the teaching lab.
This session is 2 of 2 for the Microscopic Marvels program and will include training on how to teach a plankton lab for students!
