We had our first workshop June 10th, at the Crow's Nest Research Center. Nancy Stalik, Education Director at the Friends of the Rappahannock provided a workshop on Meaningful Watershed Educational Experiences (MWEEs) along with a lot of great ideas demonstrating how MWEEs work for all students, and can be especially helpful in working with exceptional children. Lisa Lewis talked about teaching exceptional children and Dr. Brad Hatch talked about the Patawomeck tribe and its historical use of eel pots and nets in the local watershed. Amtulnoor Grosser talked about her work with aquaponics and Shin Chang-Meadows spoke about the possibilities of publishing your own children's books.
I've copied some of the links for possible project ideas below and I've added a link to the PowerPoint presentation for the workshop. I've also added a new page on Aquaponics - you'll see the link on the website home page.
