“Microbes in the Sea: Demonstrations and Activity Session for the Marine Science Resource Kits”
with Sonya Dyrhman and Sheean Haley

Originally presented 2 May 2015

Our Mar 2014 workshop presented an introduction to marine microbes, what they are, why they are important, and some of the different approaches our laboratory uses to study them.  The presentation also emphasized the availability of self-contained kits for teaching marine science lessons.  The kits can be borrowed from our laboratory at no cost.  During our May 2015 E2C workshop, we will highlight the activities and lessons of one of the available kits, the Plankton Kit.  We will offer demonstrations of some of the Plankton Kit lessons, and teachers will have the opportunity to work with the kit materials, including looking at live phytoplankton under a microscope, during the workshop.
