Workshop on bivalve shells and project activities was conducted in one elementary school in Split in January. In the past we used to do workshops as a team and in a very interactive form, this time, respecting epidemiological measures only Melita went and each child was a separate set of material to work individually – this included ziplock bags with five different shell samples and color printed material. Melita presented main methods we use and our activities on the project.
