Marine Science

Session 1 (Full)

Marine Science will be a combination of group learning and field trip experience. The group will focus primarily on elementary and middle school grades. This is such a large topic that we will explore some of the different aspects through hands on activities. Members that want to create projects for the Linn County Fair will be supported and will include individual or group Educational Displays and Science Investigation Displays. Children of all ages need to be accompanied by an adult to club meetings and field trips.

Session 1 will be led by Tiffany Hallock on the 1st Friday of the month.

Session 2 (Accepting New Members)

We will use hands-on activities, games, videos, crafts, member sharing time and field trips to explore different groups of marine life (invertebrates, mammals, birds, reptiles and fish). The focus is on adaptations of these groups to different habitat zones, water conditions and geological features. Interactions between organisms (including humans) will also be explored. Members who want to exhibit at fair will be supported.

Session 2 will be led by Cristy Motgomery and Christy Tye on the 2nd Friday of the month.

(Limited to 12 members per session)
