This changing oceanic […]

Joanne McCluskey started the forum topic Wonderful Visit in the group MARE: 13 years, 11 months ago
Today Janice McDonnell and Carrie Ferraro came to our school. They really did a wonderful job teaching our 6th graders about the methods of fishing and sustainable seafood. The students were so impressed that “real professors” who also taught their teacher, came to teach them. And what was even better they were marine biologists who […]

Laura Dunbar uploaded the file: The Team Info for printing or bulletin board use to Ross Sea Connection 13 years, 12 months ago
I’m putting together a bulletin board of info (old school, I know) but it helps my students and looks cool. Also, I can print the sheets for students to take home so parents know what we’re doing. I apologize if this is already something you have. I tried to use as little color as possible, so you may want to rearrange or change the sheets.

Very nice! Thanks for posting this!

Yes! Please do! I’m really glad that someone else can use them, too.
