When we left the Wellness Crew at the end of The Journey to Lemon Key, Rosie had received an urgent message from her friend Chris, who is a Marine Biology Student on the island of Turtle Cay. Here the coral reefs are dying and the sea turtle population is dwindling. Chris needs Rosie and the Wellness Crew to help him figure out how to save our oceans. Hop on board, and buckle up, as your wellness journey continues. In the Third Grade Workbook, Saving Our Underwater World, the Wellness Crew will travel to the island of Turtle Cay to help Chris and Naomi. Chris’s project at school is to try to save the coral reefs which are dying off. But, Chris is overwhelmed and stressed and seems to be making little progress. However, the Wellness Crew will come to the rescue and help Chris find his Wellness Groove. Once he is feeling more confident and thinking more clearly, together they will come up with an ingenious way to save the reefs. As the students progress through the workbook they will learn about many fascinating underwater creatures and create a vibrant, thriving coral reef. On their journey students will meet some great new characters. Naomi is trying to save the turtle population which is dwindling because tourists have disturbed their delicate ecosystem. The Wellness Crew comes up with a clever way to save the turtles and are an inspiration to the adults to take better care of our planet. They will be inspired throughout their journey by Professor Smile who always has encouraging words for them. Students will also cross paths with Jay, an entrepreneurial wild man! Students will witness how Chef Jack flips his restaurant with the help of Maria and Bella from the 2nd Grade workbook. No longer will he be serving unhealthy food. The Laughing Plantain will be his new plant-based restaurant. Finally, students will be inspired by the legend of Johnny Danger who was a man of action, not words.
