---------------------
After having a successful Outschool class on Cage Diving with Great White Sharks and swimming with these gentle animals, it lead me to have made three ongoing classes; Sharks of the Extinct, Deep, and Shark Showdown (Shallow Sharks) I now want to make a Flex Class for those shark enthusiats who wish to participate but, on their now schedule! 

Children love to talk about sharks, engage with shark lovers, listen, reference shark facts, think critically, and share their stories.  

In this 4-week camp, we will meet once a week to discuss, interact, write, learn the science and history of this animal, and pick a personal real "live" shark to track weekly over a powerpoint like presentation.
