NOAA Bay Watershed Education and Training (B-WET) Video Series’
The B-WET program is an environmental education program that promotes place-based experiential learning for K–12 students and related professional development for teachers. B-WET fosters the growth of new, innovative programs and encourages capacity-building and environmental education partnerships.
In 2021 the pandemic forced educational organizations applying for these grants to consider using video series that could temporarily take the place of live visits to the field by grade schoolers. In response, Future Post Media received B-WET grant funding to produced two multi-part series in collaboration with the Cascade Head Biosphere Reserve, Oregon Coast Aquarium and the Lincoln County School District. The two video series were combined with additional resource materials and activity kits for students to apply their knowledge. More at... cascadehead.org
Raindrop to Sea
Come with Youth Correspondents Ava and Alder as they lead you down a coastal water shed, following the path of a single raindrop from the top of the watershed back down to the sea in a never-ending cycle. Discover how a single raindrop falling from the sky, travels on top of and under the ground, through lakes, streams, estuary and rivers back to the sea and meet some pretty amazing plants and animals along the way.
Secret Life of Salmon
Follow Margery as she traverses the life journey of the incredible Salmon from birth in the cold, clear waters of upland streams and lakes, through estuaries and rivers back to the sea and back up those same waterways to where it’s born, spawns and dies. Similar to the Raindrop to Sea series, this five-part series on the Secret Life of Salmon is one of the components in a package of educational materials being provided to teachers in the Lincoln County School District for use in their third-grade classrooms.
