Connect with ice core scientist and high altitude climber Dr. Alison Criscitiello as she drills ice cores high on the Columbia Icefield. The ice cores it drills will help us understand the impact of global warming on future water quantity and quality.

The Explorer class is for everyone! We've developed a guide for you and your family to get the most out of Explorer Classroom events! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ul7tLmNLzzwUY9GJzbYB7QeuKULRVMyhEeoBgE2J-e4/edit?uspsharing

Here are some suggestions for activities your students can do after the event:
K-5: Draw a picture or strip of pictures of something you learned.
Grades 5-8: Write a short “news article” about what you learned.
High School: Produce a short video that explains something you learned today.

Share your students' activities via @NatGeoEducation and using #ExplorerClassroom on Twitter. Our team will share your student's work with the Explorer.

Note: Explorer Classroom sessions are live events hosted on YouTube. They are open to the public and recorded. Please share these terms with parents of students who will be participating live on camera. If parents or students prefer not to be filmed, please accommodate their wishes in your classroom.

We invite you to explore collections of activities that have been developed for educators, parents, and guardians to implement with K-12 learners. https://www.nationalgeographic.org/education/classroom-resources/learn-at-home/
