January 14, 2006: "The Hero's Journey"
What do mining and forestry have in common? How are agriculture and energy
interrelated? How do the natural and built environments impact each other?
And how do all of these relate to earth's systems of energy, matter, and
life? Explore the interconnectedness of these systems and strands, using
information from many of Arizona's natural resource providers. Karen Schedler
and Sandy Reith from the Arizona Department of Game & Fish and Project
Wild will answer these questions and more. This workshop will be held at
the Wildlife Building at the Arizona State Fairgrounds, 17th Ave. and McDowell
in Phoenix. Enter parking lot from the 19th Avenue entrance. Free parking

and has won awards for his pro bono work. This should help teachers prepare
fully to work with this supplement. Workshop will be held at Ottawa University’s
