Salmon

Salmon Workshop

Join Pacific Education Institute and partners in an exploration of salmon educational materials and experiences for grades K – 12.

• Session 1: August 10, 9 AM to 11 AM – we will gather via Zoom for a two-hour session where we will learn about the importance of salmon to our region, then explore and evaluate a new educational resource about salmon on the Grays Harbor Marine Resources Committee website. You will have time to look for areas where salmon can be incorporated into your curriculum.
• Session 2: August 11, 10 AM to 2:30 PM – a four-hour experience at the Lake Aberdeen Hatchery, including a guided tour of the facility (if open), a guest speaker, and a field investigation at the adjacent stream.

Participants who attend both days will receive:

• 6 Washington State Approved STEM clock hours
• A $75 participation stipend

Note: This workshop is open to all public school teachers in Grays Harbor County. We have 20 “seats” available. PEI and the Hatchery will be following the CDC’s guidelines for groups: all participants will have to wear a mask and practice social distancing.
