Estuary Live
Live fieldtrip to an estuary.
GRADE LEVEL: 3-12

http://www.estuarylive.org

CONTENT:
North Carolina National Estuarine Research Reserve (NCNERR) Education Office takes students on a field trip, via Webcast, to the estuaries of North Carolina.
AESTHETICS:
The site has a simple user-friendly format with high-quality photographs. RealPlayer is required for viewing the video.
ORGANIZATION:
Visitors can easily access all areas of the site from the main page. Users will need to use the Back button on their browsers to return to the home page from some of the internal pages.
REVIEW:
Take your students on a field trip to an estuary to learn about tidal flats, salt marshes, dredge spoil areas, sand dunes, and maritime forests. Streaming video is used to allow the team to broadcast live from the site. Estuary Live occurs at only certain times of year, but the site has videos of past field trips, lesson plans, resources for integrating the field trips into the curriculum, and still pictures that are available for classroom use as well as video clips and photographs that can be downloaded for use in class projects. Also included are links to the Waters of Life Video and the Learning from the Waters of Life video series and other useful links.
