Hello everyone: Please pass onto your teacher contacts:

NSDL Webinar: Life in the Polar Extremes
Date: April 7, 2009
Time: 6:30pm-7:45pm Eastern
Audience: K-8 Educators interested in ways to integrate science and 
literacy in their teaching

At first glance, the polar regions may seem barren and lifeless. Yet 
there are surprisingly rich terrestrial and marine food webs that can be 
used to illustrate ecological concepts, relationships, and changes.

In this webinar, we’ll discuss the Arctic and Antarctic ecosystems and 
their response to climate change. We’ll explore common ecological 
misconceptions and exemplary science and literacy instructional 
resources from the Beyond Penguins and Polar Bears cyberzine.

Who should attend?

Teachers (elementary and middle school), librarians, science 
coordinators, anyone with an interest in the polar regions. Feel free to 
pass this information onto your colleagues.
