Post from Tom Howick

Dear all,

Greetings! I hope you are relaxing and enjoying the summer – been hot here in the Atlanta area but I have been on the Chattahoochee River paddling at night after work…

I found a real cool article to add to your resources…see attached…(Taken from Teaching Green - The High School Years - Hands-on Learning in Grades 9-12 from Green Teacher) (www.greenteacher.com) ...enjoy.

Have you been nature journaling? I would love to see what you have been doing – bring it with you and share it next month in W.Va….

Look forward to seeing you all,


Tom

Hey All --

Wanted to share the project I did with my students this Spring -- on the AT in Western Maine (Rangeley -- Height of the Land -- to be exact).

This link: http://vimeo.com/12712968 will get you to Vimeo and my video.

Let me know if you have any questions, thoughts or comments. Hope everyone is well -- summer is here!! Wahoo!
