Virginia Watershed Radio

Check out Virginia Water Radio, a show that presents sounds and music that relate to Virginia’s waters, from the Cumberland Gap to the Atlantic Ocean. Produced weekly by the Virginia Water Center, episodes typically are 3-to-5 minutes long and use sounds or music to help introduce and focus a water topic. The show notes include links to other sources of information on the episodes' topics, including a list of the related Virginia SOLs that may be supported from the episode. 

Listen online (http://www.virginiawaterradio.org) or download on iTunes, or wherever you get your podcasts. 

A chart that lists Virginia Science Standards of Learning that have some connection to water and suggested Virginia Water Radio episodes for each SOLs is available (all hyperlinked here).
