Mapping the Arctic
Rebecca Haynes, one of the science educators from the Montshire Museum, came to our classroom with globes, maps, and NASA apps to help us explore the changing geography of the Arctic. We made a tabletop model of a polar ocean complete with sea ice and icebergs. This was a fun introduction to polar geography and gave us a chance to take the first step to understanding the effects of climate change.
