Globalwarmingkids.net Features Online Books from NSDL’s Beyond Penguins and Polar Bears eZine
Global Warming Kids draws millions of young people from across the U.S. and around the world who enjoy exploring this lively and engaging Web site. The project is part of Climate Change Education.Org (CCE) where volunteers from science museums as well as students, staff and scientists at the University of California, Berkeley provide the people power behind the Web site. They are always on the look out for NSDL resources where kids are the intended audience, and where global warming and what can be done about it is the subject. They found that combination in the Beyond Penguins and Polar Bears eZine “Stories for Students” column that presents compelling content about polar subjects such as Blue whales and a Southern Ocean food chain in three formats: text only, an illustrated book, or an on-screen electronic version designed for grades K-1, 2-3 or 4-5.
