Marine Biology Field Trip Sites. Ocean Related Curriculum Activities.
Pauls, John
The ocean affects all of our lives. Therefore, awareness of and information about the interconnections between humans and oceans are prerequisites to making sound decisions for the future. Project ORCA (Ocean Related Curriculum Activities) has developed interdisciplinary curriculum materials designed to meet the needs of students and teachers living in Washington State. Each activity packet provides the teacher with a set of lessons dealing with a particular topic related to the oceans. Included are student worksheets, lesson plans, and a bibliography. This guide provides teachers of all grade levels with the necessary information to select a beach field trip site in the Puget Sound region. A map and an inventory of facilities is given for each location. Checklists and sample letters are provided as models to aid the teacher in planning the field trip. (TW)
