Best Book Reviews Ever!

We sent copies of our Junior Mariner’s Activity Book to students at St. Elizabeth Seton Preschool and Elementary School in Rapid City, SD, and they seemed to like it. Thanks to teacher Brenda Mizenko for organizing the review!

This is fun.

Fourth grade students at St. Elizabeth Seton Preschool and Elementary School in Rapid City, South Dakota, designed and built a marine lock as a class project. They took their inspiration from their wonderful teacher, and self-proclaimed Boatnerd, Brenda Mizenko, and from our Junior Mariner’s Activity Book. The project was a great success with the young marine engineers proving that teamwork and imagination extend all the way from the Great Lakes to the Great Plains. One long and two short for the students and Brenda!

It’s fun to see students at St. Elizabeth Seton Preschool and Elementary School in Rapid City, SD, engaging with content from our Junior Mariner’s Activity Book. A special shout-out to Brenda Mizenko — recently selected as Outstanding Elementary STEM Teacher for South Dakota and self-proclaimed boatnerd — for sharing Great Lakes-Seaway shipping knowledge with her young crew!

We're happy to encourage these future mariners from the shores of South Dakota! Great work Brenda Mizenko. You're the kind of teacher we all remember in our lives!
