**This is an educational event**
In this virtual training,
participants will learn about aquatic ecology. This presentation will examine
biotic and abiotic components of freshwater systems, food webs, and the identification of native species. This will be an excellent training to get students ready for Envirothon and to expand their knowledge of aquatic ecology.
During this training, we will be playing a game through Blookit! There will be a pre- and post-game, so please have Blookit pulled up in your browser at the start of the training (https://www.blooket.com/). When you get to the main page, you’ll click ‘Join a Game’. Audrey Sykes-Meyer will share the Game ID during the meeting.

The Envirothon Program is sponsored by the NC Association of Soil and Water Conservation Districts. The Envirothon Competition is an annual environmental competition for middle and high school students. Students compete in teams of 5 to test their knowledge of the natural environment. The students rotate between the following five resource stations (Aquatic ecology, Current Environmental Issues, Forestry, Soils/land use, and Wildlife) where they will be given a written test. Questions are answered as a team.
