EXPLORING MARINE ECOSYSTEMS (Grades: 3-12)

What is an Ecosystem? How many marine ecosystems can we find on Long Island? In the world? A LOT! What makes them unique? What makes them similar? Let’s explore the globe together to find different marine environments, especially our local habitats found right here on Long Island. Students will also enjoy a special hands-on experience with sea creatures found in our salt marshes and sandy beaches!

MARINE DEBRIS AND ENTANGLEMENT (Grades: 1-12)
What happens to litter on the beach? Explore the problem of debris in the marine environment. Learn about different types and sources of debris, how it impacts marine wildlife through ingestion and entanglement, and how students can help. An excellent opportunity for your students to become young stewards of the environment!

WHAT ARE YOU AND WHERE DID YOU COME FROM? (Grades: 3-12)

Have you ever wondered how that Asian shore crab made it to your local beach? How did it get there? When did it arrive? How does it affect the local ecosystem? How can we fix this issue? We have more invasive marine species than ever before. Students will interact with some invasive species, as well as some native ones. You may be surprised to find out what animals were not always here.

BIOLUMINESCENT MAGIC (Grades: 3-12)

Communication of the deep sea! Dive into this mysterious environment as you learn about bioluminescent animals through slides and pictures, glowing models, and demonstrations. Compare this unexplored world to some land bioluminescent creatures. Learn why and how deep sea animals glow!

COMBATING CLIMATE CHANGE (Grades: 6-12)
Earth’s changing climate is a HOT topic these days. What does it mean for our oceans and local bays? How can we better understand these changes? Better yet, what can we do to help fix it? Students will learn about local and global climate issues, and get a first look at what live, local species are being affected most by a changing climate!

STORMWATER SUPERHEROES (Grades: 1-12) FREE PROGRAM*

Learn how to be a superhero! Students will explore what they can do to help our local bays and watersheds. We will discover how various kinds of pollution make their way to the bay and ocean and how it affects local marine life. Hands-on demonstrations and a storm drain system built right in your classroom will get your students ready to be Stormwater Superheroes!
