    The Search for the Lion of Baltimore: An American Privateer from the War of 1812 By David Shaw his is the story of the search for an American T privateer sunk by the British in the Chesapeake Bay in 1814. The time was the War of 1812. United States naval ships were blockaded in port by the British. Most of the naval battles of the war were fought on inland lakes such as Lake George and Lake Champlain in New York State. In large part because of the blockade, the new United States government looked to private enterprise to help out – private enterprise in the form of privateering. Privateers were nautical mercenaries, non-military, ship-borne raiders sanctioned to attack enemy vessels, whether naval or merchant, in the name of the Federal government.

  • Underwater Archaeology Curriculum Project Is Designed for Grades 7-10, Although Lessons May Be Adapted for Younger Or Older Grade Levels
    Underwater Archaeology Curriculum Project Project generously sponsored by the Dorr Foundation. Florida Aquarium Copyright © 2008 The Florida Aquarium’s Underwater Archaeology Program The Florida Aquarium has launched an Underwater Archaeology program through two projects that will expand our understanding of Florida's settlement and development: 1) An underwater survey of Tampa Bay, the only major Florida port with a long maritime history that has never been surveyed for submerged cultural material; and 2) An investigation with the University of Miami of a prehistoric settlement at Little Salt Spring. The Underwater Archaeology initiative is designed to bring these discoveries as well as the process of scientific investigation to the public. The Aquarium plans to complement this project with educational programming for the public. Acknowledgments The Dorr Foundation generously funded this curriculum project. The project includes a multidisciplinary curriculum for middle and high school students, a series of teacher education workshops, and online media opportunities. The Underwater Archaeology Curriculum Project is designed for grades 7-10, although lessons may be adapted for younger or older grade levels. Florida Sunshine State Standards for 5th, 8th, and 10th grades are included for each lesson. This curriculum was developed by Cristina Bonilla-Warford and the Florida Aquarium Education Department with assistance from Debra Keith (Hillsborough County Schools). Many people gave valuable feedback on the lessons plans and content, without whom this project would not have been possible. Thank you to: • Debbi Stone, Vice President of Education, The Florida Aquarium • Debra Keith, Science Subject Area Leader, Rodgers Middle School • Luisella DeAngelis, Teacher Programs Coordinator, The Florida Aquarium • Dr.
