MAR 27: Educator Science Café: All Hands on Deck

Join Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum and the S.C. Sea Grant Consortium for a “brunch and learn” educator science café aboard the USS Yorktown and surrounding Shem Creek! This two-part, free event will showcase ways in which to incorporate English Language Arts (ELA) to address the new S.C. State Science Standards — all while enjoying brunch provided by Callie’s Hot Little Biscuits!

Part 1: USS Yorktown (11:30 am – 1:00 pm): Using the the ship and surrounding coastal ecosystems as a foundation, educators will be invited to rotate through three learning stations designed to showcase how nature journaling (writing and drawing) and literacy can be incorporated into the virtual and/or in-person classroom.

Part 2: Shem Creek (1:00 pm – 2:30 pm): This optional part of the café will provide an opportunity to practice skills learned during Part 1 using the beautiful backdrop of Shem Creek.

Session supplies, educational resources, and brunch provided. Space is limited and registration is required by March 11, 2022. Questions can be sent to E.V. Bell or Hannah Giddens.
