and wonder how we will teach him,

He will be making decisions about how we care for our earth so that it is here for his grandchildren.

Webcasts with Skipper Rich Wilson
Since 2001 my students have followed the voyages of Skipper Rich Wilson. During this time I have shared the information about the voyage program with teachers around the world. In the summer of 2007 I had the chance to introduce Rich to some of the teachers who had followed his voyages or who I have met through connecting with his voyages.
