DescriptionThis Resource Guide on Coastal Awareness in Science was developed for elementary school teachers who would like to instill in children an appreciation of the ecologic value of the coast. It contains concepts and activities which could be used in a week long unit on coastal awareness. The purpose of this guide is not to present a definitive work on coastal ecology, but to entice teachers to explore ecological aspects of coastal awareness.
