A.B.C.’s of a Wetland! Grade 5 and up
Pre-Trip to Your Classroom:
A naturalist will present a power-point slide show to your class that will review the non-living (abiotic), living (biotic) and cultural components of the San Francisco Bay and some history of the Port of Oakland. Students will learn about what is expected of them and how to be safe during their field trip.
Field Trip to Middle Harbor:
Your students will engage directly in science and anthropology by “taking stock” of the shoreline the day of your visit. Students will collect and test water, observe creatures that live in the mud through magiscopes, scout the park for old and new built structures, and practice caring for their environment. This interdisciplinary program explores how the living, non-living, and cultural components of the San Francisco Bay relate to each other in the context of stewardship.
