Let's Go to the Beach! - 18

Going to the beach is a favorite activity for many of us. If that includes you, join us in this discussion-centered study group about beaches. We will first consider what defines a beach, how beaches form, and how they change over time. We will talk about life on the beach, including the wide variety of plants and animals that use the beach as their home or for a stopover. And, of course, we will talk about beachcombing finds, from sea glass to shells to sand dollars. Finally, we will discuss the challenges that beaches face and what we can do to help preserve these special places. There will be many opportunities to share during each class, including discussions of short poems and stories read in class or at home. So, let’s go to the beach together!
Required reading: Readings will be provided.
