NEWPORT, Ore. - The Oregon
Coast Aquarium invites elementary
school teachers to enhance their
knowledge of marine sciences at this
summer’s Teaching Educators About
Marine Science (TEAMS): Marine
Ecosystems from July 18 to July 23.
The five-day workshop builds on
the complex relationship between
habitat and adaptation. Working with
the aquarium’s education and animal
husbandry staffs, K-5 educators explore
five marine ecosystems, including
wetlands, sandy shores, rocky shores,
the deep sea, and the open ocean.
Teachers participating in the
TEAMS workshop take field trips and
participate in a variety of structured
activities centered on the five marine
habitats, including a visit to the a tide
pool and an ocean boat trip.
Participants receive a binder full of
educational materials for their class
rooms. They gain new instructional
tools, receive peer coaching by the
aquarium’s education specialists,
network with colleagues from outside
their local area, and enjoy behind-the-
scenes experiences at the aquarium.
TEAMS: Marine Ecosystems can
be taken for four graduate credits ($ 180)
through Western Oregon University.
Oregon Professional Development
Units or Washington State Clock Hours
also are available.
As a co-sponsor for this year’s
TEAMS workshop, the Elizabeth Street
Inn is offering 10 free rooms to partici
pating teachers. The rooms are available
on a first-come, first-served basis.
Those wishing to stay at the inn must
have a roommate.
Cost for the week is $325 and includes
lunches, program materials, and field
trips. Scholarships may be available.
Advanced registration is required by
July 9; call 541-867-3474, ext. 5301.
