Sharing the wonder of bogs with National Geographic Explorer Classroom

On May 17, 2021, I had the joy of connecting with elementary school kids about how fun it can be to explore bogs through National Geographic Society’s online program “Explorer Classroom Littles.”

I called our session “Finding the Rainbow in Irish Bogs,” and went through each color of the rainbow with the kids, searching for what might be red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and event pink in the bog. It was a blast!

As a National Geographic Explorer, I love doing outreach with students on peatlands, bogs, and soil in general. If you are looking for someone to connect with your students on these topics, feel free to reach out. Find my National Geographic Explorer profile here.
