Michelle Gilsrud has been a Talent Development teacher in the Anoka-Hennepin School District for the past nine years. She was a fourth grade teacher for eight years before that. During the summer, she loves to travel—especially to locations near the ocean. She has developed a fascination with life “under the sea.”
Ocean Adventures
Have a “whale” of a time fishing for exciting underwater facts and fun! Map the oceans, learn about waves, tides and ocean critters through hands-on activities, experiments, computers, books, and videos. Go under the sea with your new friends to investigate various mammals, fish invertebrates, and crustaceans! Do you like art projects? Each day has a craft activity sure to make you dance in your flippers! Our extended days include a trip to the Sea Life Aquarium at the Mall of America (with a possibility of a Behind-The-Scenes Tour) and a second trip to visit Discovery Bay and the Tropics Aquarium at the Minnesota Zoo!
