Hello world…

My name is Bryan Franke and I have prepared a Geologic and Biologic Self-Guided Nature Walk through Sans-Soucci Nature Preserve. This is a Suffolk County Nature Preserve that runs from Sunrise Highway to the Great South Bay, Northeast to Southwest along the Sayville-Bayport town line.

I am a newly hired science teacher at Bayport-Bluepoint High School. I teach Regents Earth Science.

After attending SUNY Stony Brook from Fall 92' to Fall 93'. I then traveled to SUNY Farmingdale for one semester, Spring 94'. I finally found a permanent home at SUNY Cortland where I majored in Biology Secondary Education and completed a minor in Geology which I geared towards the NY State Earth Science curriculum. I am presently teaching Earth Science at Bayport-Bluepoint High School.

I am developing this walk with the hope that students will develop a better understanding of the environment by incorporating both geologic and biologic concepts. I also plan to use this walk as an introduction to the ESRP required for the Modified Earth Science Curriculum.

If there are any questions or comments E-mail me @: mail to:bfranke@b-bp.k12.ny.us
