Description: Join us outside for this FREE workshop as we investigate aquatic biodiversity in the Santa Monica Mountains and life’s enabling substance – water. Experience the three dimensional learning cycle that is integral to NGSS as illustrated by the activities of Project WET.
Educators get research-based planning tools that, when implemented with integrity, will bring immediate benefits to students. Ample time for collegial co-planning is built into the workshop as we explore aquatic biodiversity in the park. This workshop is designed to support teachers planning to visit a National Park area with their class or at their own school sites!
