Abstract
This paper proposes a science curriculum that was aimed at making changes in the student awareness regarding our effect on the Pacific wild salmon of the Northwest Coast. It was geared at developing an understanding the importance the salmon is to our culture – our way of living. Another important task in which this particular curriculum focuses on was conservation strategies in which students developed on a personal level. Everything is connected and for sure as the world turns, our culture will surely diminish if the salmon diminishes.
