YouTube may be used in a screen-share manner to show a video about Ocean Garbage Patches. The video will aid in students' understanding of these huge patches of trash in our oceans. No account is required. Specifically, the video is from NOAA's National Ocean Service channel on YouTube. I will be using Canva to design and create my presentation for this class. Students may be asked to use the "whiteboard" feature of Canva as an interactive tool to participate in classroom activities such as creating models.
