Chalk Talk: Resources for Learning about Science
Bats are fascinating creatures that inspire both fear and curiosity. To help children learn about what bats do for the environment they can visit the Adventure of Echo the Bat website, which is sponsored by NASA. At the website, students will be able to follow Echo the bat as he travels to Arizona where he hibernates in the winter. The site can also be used by teachers and parents providing homeschooling as a teacher’s guide accompanies the site.
