This teacher's guide was prepared for use with "Down Where the Water Is: A Coastal Awareness Activity Book," as part of the Rhode Island Coastal Resources Management Council's public education program. Contained are instructions on the use of the Activity Book, page-by-page, with glossaries, activity ideas, resources, places to visit, and notes identified where relevant. Activity ideas are multi-disciplinary in nature, with four general subject areas specified: (1) language arts; (2) science and mathematics; (3) social studies; and (4) art and music. Pictures in the Activity Book are designed to promote discussion in the elementary school classroom of people, places, and things relating to the coastal environment. (CS)
