Atlantic Salmon Conservation Schools Network...
Connecting with participants involved with #SalmonSchoolScotland
Today we will be working in groups to develop a PowerPoint that will be shared with students involved with the ASCSN project currently in Scotland. We plan to Skype with them tomorrow at 12 pm so this will be presented to them at this time. Each group is to develop slides on their assigned topic [be sure to use the same style as shown in class]. We will compile them at the end of class and select students to share the slides tomorrow...for EcoPoints of course!
