Nab the
Aquatic Invader
www.sgnis.org/kids
![GLIN Site of the Month]() Nab the Aquatic Invader is an
exciting education technology venture that uses problem-based
activities to teach students in grades 4-10 about invasive species.
An engaging detective theme raises awareness of the critical nature
of problems caused by invaders and inspires a desire to take action.
As honorary detectives, students are provided with opportunities for
critical thinking and scientific inquiry. Students conduct research
with the help of fact sheets, photos, web links, curriculum,
education kits, maps and more. Educators have an opportunity to
enhance existing units; use activities created by teachers; and work
with technology that integrates science, geography, math and
language arts. The site provides a stimulating online educational
experience.
