The Marine Institute’s Explorers Education Programme’s outreach team are sharing their favourite marine facts and lesson plans about the ocean.
These are being shared for teachers, parents and primary school children to use while they are doing their school work from home as part of its ‘Meet the Explorers Team’ online initiative.
The ‘Explorers Meet the Team’ will be posting ocean facts on its social media channels and have set up a dedicated page on www.explorers.ie for teachers and parents to download free lesson plans, activities, project ideas and fun facts about the ocean over the coming weeks.
“In recognition of International Earth Day celebrated from the beginning of spring (20th March – 22nd April), many of our Explorers outreach teams are going digital this month sharing their stories, favourite facts and providing free lesson plans to help raise awareness about the ocean and all the life it supports,” said Cushla Dromgool-Regan, Education Strategic Manager, Camden Education Trust.
Along with other content from the Marine Institute also being shared via its social media channels, the Explorers team are keen to share the children’s favourite facts, stories and projects about the ocean online as well.
Keep an eye on the Explorers and Marine Institute social media channels for updates, competitions and sharing new stories about the ocean.
