Letter of Introduction Instructions


Each school should write and submit a Letter of Introduction to the project's Discussion Area. We would appreciate if you could limit the number of letters to one per school. If possible, have different classes combine their letters. The Letter of Introduction should include the following:

  1. Name of your school, subject, and grade level of your class.

  2. Location of your school including city, state/province, country, latitude and longitude (so other students can pin-point your location on the map).

  3. Location of the sampling area.

  4. Describe land use around the sampling area, for example, farm, golf course, etc.

  5. Where does the water body drain to? For example, if it is a stream, which river, if it is a river, which bay?

  6. Any other information that you would like to share about your city, school, and community.
