High School

The Water Authority will provide interactive, engaging water education information and activities for kids and families (more info TBD).

The SDMTS will display the benefits of transit to our environment, and how public transportation is getting cleaner with our fleet electrification. We will also be offering general information on how to ride MTS, and how youth can ride public transit for free to school, extra curriculars, and wherever else they need to travel to within San Diego County.

The interactive booth will allow attendees to better understand some of the County of San Diego Department of Environmental Health Programs. Interactive dry ice demonstrations are designed to help attendees better understand some of the chemical hazards faced by our emergency responders on the Hazardous Incident Response Team. Attendees will also be able to learn about the beach water quality monitoring program and the tools available to ensure their safety when entering recreational waters.

With Live Well San Diego

We will have a collection of samples of the mosquito lifecycle to be viewed by microscope or magnifying glasses in order to learn about where mosquitoes come from. We typically try to bring some live samples when they are available. We have a mock back backyard setup to provide examples of places that can hold water and breed mosquitoes. This interactive display helps people understand how to prevent mosquitoes and bites and stay protected from diseases.

ILACSD will provide resources related to environmental education on behalf of the City of San Diego. We'll have information about proper waste sorting and where/how to dispose of different types of items. We will have a game for people to sort items into: recycling, trash, and compost, including tricky items like aerosol cans, plastic wrappers, tissue paper, and sticky notes. Many people thoroughly enjoy playing this game and learning about why each item is disposed of a particular way.

PUSD will feature graphic design, robotics and engineering hands-on activities. Graphic design will have an interactive and fun paint pouring experience to help learn about graphics.

In collaboration with Traveling Miss T. (@travelingmisst on instagram), The EcoLogik Institute (based out of Cabrillo National Monument) presents Cabrillo National Monument math maps! Travel by coordinate plane to learn about the environment, wildlife, and history of Cabrillo National Monument. Students will also have to opportunity to try their hand at wildlife monitoring with simulated science activities led by real National Park Service biologists!

STEM booth activities TBD

Explore how animals are classified by what they eat as well as how they eat with live animal presentations and encounters. Gain an understanding of the interconnectedness of different species on the food web, and participate in an activity that demonstrates a model food web what disruptions invasive species cause to it. In a classroom setting, the class would follow up with tracking and graphing the invasive species impact and brainstorm improvement methods.
