Expectations of Teachers

  • Expectations of Teachers

To use the Splash Curriculum teachers must agree to devote several class periods to the Splash lessons. A mandatory three-hour workshop provides all the guidance needed to use the logical, cohesive, and teacher-friendly curriculum.

Exciting, hands-on, inquiry investigation

The Splash Secondary Curriculum is exciting and fun for the environmentally conscious students.  I had a blast with my students studying the macroinvertebrates, watching the DVD, and hunting throught the BMI Guide to take notes on what we had found and how it related to water quality.   I look forward to more exciting, hands-on, inquiry investigation next year with my Biology students.
