Skype a school

Dear all,

 

We are looking for a polar expert to spare a little time to skype a school in the US.

 

The class is 6th grade (students are around 11-12 years old), and they have been studying Antarctica in geography. They participated in our UKPN Antarctica flags scheme, designing flags and sending them off to with scientists. Now, they just got a webcam and are really enthusiastic to have a quick chat.

 

If you’re interested, please reply to education@polarnetwork.org. Great international outreach experience, and only a one-off so it won’t take up much of your time!

 

Thanks,

 

Holly
