MARINE SCIENCE ADVENTURE
|
Spring Program: April 26-28
Fall Program: September 25-27 Enjoy some coastal exploration time on the beautiful barrier islands of the Eastern Shore! During the Marine Science Adventure, students will get hand-on and feet-wet in some of our favorite marine habitats. Depending on which program you sign up for, activities could include observing the physical and chemical properties of the Chincoteague Bay, seining for organisms in the intertidal zone, exploring the life hidden inside the marsh, studying the unique ecology of a barrier island, and more. This combination of hands-on observation of marine environments and time to socialize with other young marine biologists will make for some of the most memorable homeschool experiences for your family yet!
