Ever wanted to get in the water with intelligent and playful dolphins? This is your chance! Escape the classroom and head to sunny Florida, the only place where alligators and crocodiles coexist. Hike the everglades at night, snorkel among vibrant tropical fish along Florida’s barrier reef, and visit the world’s only state-certified veterinary hospital dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of sea turtles. Splash into Science introduces concepts of environmental science, marine biology, and life science in a fun and interactive way. http://www.worldstrides.org/destinations/splash_into_science.asp

15. "I believe students learn best when they're active and engaged in the learning process, and I can only do so much in a classroom setting. When students have the opportunity to experience different cultures and real-life science, they want to learn and be involved. I have found that after a trip, students are excited to share what they learned and to engage in the new material. An added bonus is how much fun we have together!" - Teacher
