CTY Trip 4: Scrimshaw and Wrap-up

After working on scrimshaw for the past few days, the students finally competed their designs and turned them into awesome necklaces and jewelry!

The students then finished cleaning the Lady Maryland top to bottom- one of the last of their duties as the trip comes to end.  Tonight, they presented the final projects that have been a huge comoponent of their education here on Lady Maryland. The students chose specific topics in whale ecology and marine science, developed research questions, proposed potential hypotheses, then created potential research experiments to test their questions.  They presented their results both with detailed posters and creative interpretations like raps, skits, and poems.
