Did
you know that a Heal
the Bay speaker can visit your classroom and give
a presentation...for
free?!
That's
right! Our trained Speakers
Bureau volunteers
are ready, able, and willing to visit
your
students to give a free educational presentation
about the
causes
and consequences of
ocean pollution.
Presentations
can be geared to any age group from kindergarten
through adults. We
can also customize our talk to suit the
special needs of any group, including health
classes,
community service
groups,
swim teams, PTAs and ecology clubs. Most
of our speeches are done for groups of 15
to 100 people. The talks are usually 30 minutes
to one hour, working with your schedule.
When
a speaker visits your classroom, you'll receive:
• An
informative presentation with visual aids
• A
video presentation
• Handouts
and brochures
• Material
for homework and review (upon request)
Topics
included in our presentations:
• Storm
drains and urban runoff
• The
sewage system
• Impacts of marine debris
• Health
risks at the beach
• How
each individual can help keep our
oceans clean
Speakers
Bureau presentations support science learning
according to California State Standards K-12,
so request
a speaker today and incorporate environmental
education into your classroom curriculum! |
