ONLINE LEARNING

Are you a teacher in need of a virtual program for your classroom? Take a virtual field trip to Jennette’s Pier and participate in any of the following programs online! We can accommodate both students in the classroom (*) and students from their homes (**). Each 45-minute program will be guided by a Jennette’s Pier educator to keep your students engaged.

** Beach Explorations: Travel to the beach virtually! Our educators will show beach biofacts such as shells, bones, and skulls to teach your kids about the organisms we have on the coast of North Carolina. Classrooms will receive a beach kit full of shells! Recommended for elementary and middle school students.

** Plankton Investigations: Students learn about scientific instruments and discover the microscopic organisms that are vital to the marine food chain. Students will be able to see on a screen what a scientist sees through a microscope. If microscopes are available in your classroom we can mail a sample to your school. Recommended for elementary and middle school students.

*Ocean Currents:  Students discover how convection currents work and why they are important in a marine ecosystem. The program includes a lab where students learn about density and why this is an important factor that drives currents. You will receive a classroom kit with all the supplies needed to conduct the experiment. Recommended for middle school students.
