Professional Title
Temporary Watershed Game Education Specialist (7/31/2023 to 12/31/2023)

What I do for Sea Grant

I am developing materials, lesson plans, and activities that will help educators identify and implement stewardship and community science activities with students in their local watersheds. The lessons will be geared toward a middle school and high school audiences and will meet Next Generation Science Standards. This work is part of a Center for Great Lakes Literacy project, and will be incorporated into Minnesota Sea Grant's Watershed Game project.
