The National Wildlife Federation has developed a site on the BP oil spill for teachers that we may want to consider linking to sooner than our normal process. It includes a section of questions and answers on what kids are asking about the spill.
The recent tragedy in the Gulf of Mexico is one that everyone including our students is embracing. Visit this link to keep on top of this disaster as it unfolds and hopefully ends soon. http://wsre.org/OilSpill/teachers-students-kids.asp
Now you can easily access information on topics that highlight our active
Earth. Learn all about the latest earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes,
severe weather, wildfires, tides and currents, droughts, a calendar fo
solar and lunar eclipses, and daily streamflow information.
