This past winter and spring Heather Spense has been teaching children on Isla Mujeres and in the city of Cancun about the Mesoamerican Coral Reef, the second largest in the world, which borders their beaches. As the students become environmental stewards, they are starting green clubs in their schools. Heather has prepared a bilingual activity book on the marine life of the Mexican Caribbean, helping students to see the reef as a living animal. She's also prepared videos of the students' activities that have been shown on Mexican TV and broadcast in radio stations. Heather is now working on a collaborative effort with students at H-B to interact with these Mexican students.
