The Excitement is growing!

In little more than a month I will be embarking on such an amazing expedition and feel extremely lucky that I will be able to share it with my students and school! Right now I am planning my trip and getting to know the other teachers who I will be sharing this experience with and cannot wait to work together as a team with the research team from Tulane University. I look forward to recording this experience for others who are interested in the work that I will be assisting in collecting and how our changing climate is impacting our future.

As I am preparing I am most looking forward to the adventure of kayaking into the remote regions of the Pearl River Wildlife Management Area to gather data and share the experience "Live From the Field" with my students. Although I will not be in front of them I am excited to see them during our conferences and hope to hear their thoughts on the experience on this blog! I am hopeful that this experience will continue my classroom theme of "Science is Everywhere" and will further continue to show students that the science we learn together goes beyond the classroom and connects them to the world! 

I look forward to you joining me on my exciting adventure!
