LIVE ON CAMPUS PERFORMANCE for Spring 2023:

"La Princesa & The Frog: A Recycled Story"


Polly Mermaid was born to be the princess of the North Pacific Ocean, but the people of her realm are disappearing because of ocean pollution. With the help of her friend Basurana, Polly is traveling to schools to discover how human habits affect natural habitats. Students will practice the scientific method to brainstorm solutions for the broken system that turns treasures into trash.

Bring a walking, talking mermaid and her mutant frog friend to your school to laugh away the eco-anxiety students face when they see their efforts as just a "drop in the ocean."

An accompanying PDF breakdown features processing activities including discussion questions, statistical analysis, and optional project-based learning activities.
