We strive to ensure that our education outreach program's
workshops and materials meet the needs of Montana's schools. If we can help your school district meet water
education and professional development needs, please contact the Education
Outreach Coordinator. See our pamphlet on why
we use water in educator professional development.

Correlations to FOSS kits
The activities in the Project WET, Aquatic WILD, WOW and Conserve Water
guides can be used to reinforce or enhance lessons and concepts in some
FOSS kits. This document gives suggestions on activities that may be good
supplements for these 7 FOSS kits: Solids and Liquids, Weather, Animal
Studies and Habitats, Landforms, Water Cycle, Floating and Sinking, and
Ecosystems. Correlation document.
Correlations in pdf format.
Whittier
school teacher Cherryl Underhill contacted us about using aquatic insects
to compliment lessons from the "Animal Studies" FOSS kit. Bozeman schools
use this kit as part of 3rd grade science. See
what we did.
Rolling Rivers trailer
The DNRC and various conservation districts around Montana have Rolling
Rivers trailers. This large "stream table" comes to your school
on a big trailer to demonstrate the concept of floodplains, where a river's
energy is and how a river moves over time. Concepts also relate actions
we take in riparian areas (areas next to the river) to what happens with
the flow of the river. Our WET facilitators have suggested
activities that would illustrate these concepts in the classroom pre-
or post-visit with the trailer. All WET activities are also related to
the science content standards (see above).
