In honor of Earth Week, Great Lakes Now programs are re-airing on Detroit Public TV. All of these shows have some learning activities coordinated with them, so we thought we’d bring them to you in one place. And you’re in that place. Whether you’re interested in recreation on the lakes, “fatbergs,” water pollution or fish populations, here are the links to episodes and their coordinated lesson plans and activities you can do at home with your children:
Episode 1006: Waters Restored
Floating islands on the Chicago River are creating habitats for fish, turtles and birds inside the city waterway, while up north in Lake Superior, scientists are working to protect a rocky reef from legacy mining pollution.
