Extractions: MAYNARD. MA 24 teachers from six states - California, Florida, Massachusetts, Maine, Rhode Island, and Washington – will venture to the vast wetlands of Brazil’s Pantanal and to the Skagit River watershed of Washington this summer to participate in conservation research projects as part of a $75,000 grant award Earthwatch Institute has received from National Geographic Society Education Foundation (NGSEF). Earthwatch’s "Strengthening Geography in Schools through Conservation Field Work and Collaboration" is strategically designed to address the lack of geographic knowledge among students in the United States. "This innovative project will help students become stewards of our natural and cultural resources,” said Barbara Chow, Executive Director of the Society’s Education Foundation. “Giving these teachers a first-hand look at the realities of conservation issues will enliven their teaching.” The project will send 24 geography/science educators to conservation projects in the Pantanal wetlands in Brazil and the Skagit River watershed in Washington State. Through subsequent workshops and websites, these teachers expect to reach another 2,400 K-12 teachers and 240,000 students with geography and conservation lessons linking field research to local environmental issues.

Extractions: WEBMASTER T he smallest state of the union, Rhode Island, also has the longest official name of any of the states: "State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations". The state is one of the most densely populated and heavily industrialized for its size. For a state that is only 37 miles wide and 48 miles long, it is notable that its shoreline on Narragansett Bay in the Atlantic Ocean runs for 400 miles. Indeed, one of Rhode Island's nicknames is "the Ocean State." T he legendary mansions of Newport overlook the ocean at Narragansett Bay. Many of these spectacular homes are open for tourists and offer an inside glimpse into the lives of America's high society. The Breakers, the magnificent Vanderbilt mansion built in 1895, is one of the most elegant private homes that has ever graced the Newport shorefront. THE NAME: This state was named by Dutch explorer Adrian Block. He named it "Roodt Eylandt" meaning "red island" in reference to the red clay that lined the shore. The name was later anglicized when the region came under British rule. Source: Shearer, Benjamin F. and Barbara S.

Extractions: Governor October l997 Dear Mrs. Sarsfield Thank you for your recent letter to Governor Almond concerning your forthcoming trip throughout the country. It is quite an ambitious undertaking. The governor has asked me to outline various areas of the state which he thinks are important for you to see. We think you will be amazed at the Ocean State's unparalleled variety of scenic attractions and abundant hospitality all packed within 37 x 48 miles. Roger Williams founded Rhode Island in 1636 as a haven for political and religious freedom. The state was also the first of the 13 original colonies to declare independence from Great Britain and the last to ratify the U.S. Constitution! demanding inclusion of the Bill of Rights, which guarantees individual liberties. Rhode Island continues to celebrate three and one-half centuries of living history and international heritage with tremendous pride and enthusiasm throughout the state. Rhode Island is a state of striking contrasts. Located on New England's south coast.
