But, remember this summer when we heard so much about shark encounters \u2014 notice I\u2019m not using the word \u201cattack\u201d \u2014 along the East Coast? Katie Mosher, communications director for North Carolina Sea Grant, teamed up with Eleanor Spicer Rice, part of a science blogging team, to develop a blog post about the shark-human situation during the summer of 2015. It\u2019s a very entertaining, yet educational, piece of work. The illustrations by a clinical social worker are the icing on the proverbial cake!<\/p>\n<p>Here is the link to the antishark attack handbook blog post: <a href=\"http:\/\/buzzhootroar.com\/anti-shark-attack\" target=\"_blank\">buzzhootroar.com\/anti-shark-attack<\/a>; and here is the link to the blog post turned poster: <a href=\"http:\/\/buzzhootroar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sharks_onepage.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">buzzhootroar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sharks_onepage.pdf<\/a>.

Join us on Saturday, Oct. 24, 2015, for a hands-on teacher workshop guiding you through our new curriculum and website.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the curriculum, you will learn about more resources, such as weekly blog posts, that will be made during the school year. Topics will include species profiles, aquarium staff spotlights, behind-the-scenes videos, new lesson plans and more. Follow the growth of the N.C. Aquarium hatchling sea turtles by visiting the blog each week.<\/p>\n<p>Aligned with the new Common Core standards, your class will be able to \u201cadopt\u201d a turtle and learn about its care and growth. By adopting our sea turtle, you will receive weekly updates with information including the turtle\u2019s current weight and length. Each class also will receive a certificate of participation.<\/p>\n<p>By the end of the workshop, you will be familiar with the website and curriculum and how to implement the lessons in your own classroom. The workshop will include a behind-the-scenes tour to meet one of our sea turtles. Please pack a waste-free lunch, as there will not be food available on site. This workshop will count toward N.C. Environmental Education Certification and consists of six contact hours that may count toward CEUs for teachers.<\/p>\n<p>To register, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/reservations.ncaquariums.com\/fortfisher\/Info.aspx?EventID=20\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/reservations.ncaquariums.com\/fortfisher\/Info.aspx?EventID=20<\/a>.
