Stream Discovery Fall 2016 Workshop Grayslake 

The Stream Discovery Program is an introductory stream monitoring program for grades 5-12 that provides students with the opportunity to assess water quality in their community by monitoring macroinvertebrates and water chemistry in a local stream. Water quality data are then uploaded to National Geographic’s FieldScope mapping & data platform for comparison with student data in other IL watersheds. This workshop will be at Prairie Crossing Charter School in Grayslake, IL.

Participants must register and complete payment by October 13. No refunds will be issued after October 13th. 

Six professional development hours are available at no extra cost through this workshop, please bring your Illinois Educator Identification Number (IEIN) to complete the required forms. 

Lunch is not provided, you will have time to grab a quick lunch in town or you can bring your lunch. Please bring clothes appropriate for wading in a small stream. Old tennis shoes are best, rubber boots will also work.

If you need to contact the Stream Discovery trainer the day of the event, please call Matthew Young's cell phone at 501-258-1360.
