Beach Scavenger Hunt
[Handout]
This PDF is a handout that you can give to students during a field trip to the beach.  They should circle each item that they find or see.  They are not supposed to bring the items back.  This helps preserve the environment and keeps the kids safe from sharp edges of shells. It is provided by The Discovery Hall Programs at DISL
