![]() Creating Coastal Stewardship through Science Curriculum GuidesThe seven guides below were created by teachers for teachers in 2003 and, therefore, do not reflect current California State NGSS and Common Core standards; however, the content may still be valuable for educational use. They provide middle school students with opportunities to observe natural processes at Point Reyes National Seashore to stimulate interest in science and environmental stewardship. Each guide is designed to facilitate hands-on learn experiences using science and the environment. Natural resources such as tule elk, California quail, Pacific gray whales, northern elephant seals, and the San Andreas Fault are highlighted because they are easy to identify and observe. All activities are linked to the California and National Science Standards. ![]() Free Curriculum CDThese curricula are available on CD-ROM by calling 415-464-5139.
