WONDER ABOUT.....Water!

Be Prepared to.... EXPLORE.... Wetlands!

OBSERVE...... Ecology!

Make Good Observations This does not necessarily mean just guessing. It means using background information that you know already, critically thinking ("does that make sense?"), use scientific principals you know are true and accurate, etc.. to help you.
