Dear TIC Teachers, Educators, and Friends,
I enjoyed seeing many of you at the TIC Fall Teacher Conference last week! Attached is our October E-Newsletter with some trout and tank care tips for the fall. Also attached is our Lesson of the Month: Climate Trouble for Trout in the Watershed, which was piloted at this year’s teacher conference.
I will be in touch again soon with additional resources from the conference for attendees. Please feel free to reach out anytime with questions, comments, or concerns.
Wishing happy birthdays to all the baby trout!
-Nicki
