Great Lakes Steward Ship Initiative Northeast Michigan

And these All Saints students did just that when Stephanie Gandulla, an archaeologist at Thunder Bay Marine Sanctuary, created a mock shipwreck site for them to map and study.

Students learned the steps that go into an archaeological site as well as the unique ways shipwrecks are well-preserved in the Great Lakes because of the fresh, cold water.

We posted a video with a lot of action shots on our Instagram page after this field visit.  You can watch the video by clicking on this link:

During this place-based education visit to North Point Preserve on Lake Huron the students also searched for marine debris/micro plastics and learned about the native coastal plant communities.
