Are You Ready for the Roll Call?
Take a look or print out the "Key to Attendance Sheets" lesson, and learn the main features of the Run and the data that Ranger Wayne records:
Then, come back and look at the actual Attendance Sheets below, and work through the Journaling Questions provided. (Oh, and while your at it, be sure to look over the Attendance Sheet from December 27 closely, to see why many canoeists got "upset" in the river):

Now, think through the Journaling Question below, and write your ideas in your journal.
Try This! Journaling Questions:
A) On November 14 and December 6, why do you think there are no manatees in the run on one day and 33 in the run on the other? Look at the Attendance sheets, and compare the conditions Ranger Wayne recorded for the temperatures of the air, river water, and run water. What differences can you find from one day to the next? Do you think these differences relate to how many manatees come into the run? Why? Are there any other conditions noted by Ranger Wayne that make one date different from the other?
B) December 06 and December 22: Look at the locations where Ranger Wayne indicates he is observing most of the manatees each day. How far into the run are the manatees coming each day? Then, compare the conditions Ranger Wayne recorded for the temperatures of the air, river water, and run water. What differences can you find from one day to the next? Do you think these differences relate to how far the manatees come into the run? Why?
C) December 06 and December 22,: What do you notice about the location of the dark water from the River. On each day, how far into the run is the dark water coming in? Compare the conditions Ranger Wayne recorded for the temperatures of the air, river water, and run water on both days. What conditions are different from one date to the next? Do you think these differences relate to how far the dark water comes into the run? Why?
