Club Activities: Go with the Flow 6n4q12
"Go With the Flow" provides kids with a broad overview of watersheds and human impact on ecosystems, in both a tropical swamp and right in their own neighborhoods. These activities were designed as a sequence that weaves together PLUM LANDING media resources, including animations, videos, and games, with outdoor exploration and hands-on activities. Each day offers approximately one hour of programming. 4v5j6b
Day 1 ap6f
Today you'll introduce your kids to PLUM LANDING and to a mangrove swamp in Belize. Start out by having kids watch River Rollercoaster, a video showing how water moves through a landscape and carries things with it. Have a discussion using the associated "Conversation Starters," then do the related hands-on activity Build A Watershed. If time permits, wrap up your day completing one or more of the "Explore Some More" activities listed with both the video and activity.
