Robin Ellwood gave a very interesting and passionate account of her
Antarctica explorations. Middle school students asked her questions and
she talked about her fascinating experience on the waters of
Antarctica. 

I divided her talk in small parts having in
mind classroom use. Teachers might choose to focus on one aspect of Ms.
Ellwood's adventures, so here's my little contribution to the inspiring
2008 EarthCast!
