APES Field Trip

Rebecca asked me to help her chaperone her AP Environmental students on their annual canoeing exploration of Bottoms Landing, down on the south James. It was so much fun. They, of course, have been talking about this ecosystem all year and to see them make those connections between their studies in the book to real life science was great. We were out all day. We had some lecture time, some benchwork for them, and some time using the seine net. I'm glad Rebecca asked me, I really enjoyed myself and my flash back to my Marine Biology days:)
