This Lake Alive!: An Interdisciplinary Handbook for Teaching and Learning About the Lake Champlain Basin

by Amy B. Demarest

An equally stimulating publication from Shelburne Farms is This Lake An Interdisciplinary Handbook for Teaching and Learning about the Lake Champlain Basin. This is not a teaching curriculum, but rather an opportunity to create curriculum. Essays, activities, and resources take the participant through the worlds of geology, geography, history, nautical archeology, and ecology. Although the focus for this study is Lake Champlain (the nation's sixth largest lake and for a short period of time officially a "great lake"), the template of this book will translate easily to other bodies of water.
