The Fin Foundation had a great time going back to Laguna Elementary School! (and it is always a good feeling knowing they want us to come back year after year!) We gave two presentations this year for the 5th graders! The kids really enjpyed having the chance to learn about the ocean and its amazing underwater creatures! The large snail shell got lots of “ooohs!” and of course they loved the turtle shell and other artifacts!
The Fin Foundation applauds the educators at this school for their continued commitment to educate their students about our world’s oceans even though they live in the desert! So important!

The Fin Foundation presented to Gilbert Christian School on Thursday! We had a great experience as we shared our ocean artifacts and powerpoint presentation with three groups! Each presentation went really well, with lots of great questions from the students! The kids were attentive, curious, and excited about the ocean!
   We were really happy to also have Sage and McCoy in the audience and we took the time to bring them up during the presentations and used their help to show how big snails can really be and how fish swim! (benefit/cost of being related to the presenter?)
