We are thrilled to announce that the NOAA Live! 4 Kids webinars will continue this 2021-2022 school year! Join us to get a sneak peek at what our National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) scientists do in all the various NOAA offices across the country! Students in grades 2nd-8th can connect with scientists and ask questions in real-time through a moderator. This year, we will typically host two webinars per month (with live American Sign Language interpretation). One webinar will feature brand new speakers, and the other will bring back previous speakers revisiting their topic through a new lens. NOAA Live! Alaska will be doing a series of shorter regional webinars focused on specific regions of Alaska generally on Tuesdays a 1 pm AKT/5 pm ET. Our first NOAA Live! 4 Kids webinar will take place on October 6th at 4pm ET. Be on the lookout for more details about how to register. We look forward to sharing NOAA science with kids again this school year!
We’re also excited to promote an exciting opportunity for 5th - 12th graders: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Western Region has launched the “Picture Climate Change'' student photo contest and is looking for images that showcase climate change in the western United States. This photo contest is a chance for students to showcase their climate change experience through the lens of a camera, and to provide a short written narrative. The narrative is meant to highlight the student’s climate change photo and provides the student a chance to add a short story about how the climate variability or change captured within their image has or will impact their local community and future. Please help us spread the word about this contest so we can see and hear the voices of our nation’s students! Details are available here. |
