Bella and Nonnie are begonias living in the rain forest of Peru until one day a research botanist collects them as part of her research with the Andes to Amazon Biodiversity Program. Specimens are sent to the Botanical research Institute in Fort Worth, Texas. Thus begins Bella's journey to become a valued specimen in BRIT's herbarium. A video made at BRIT starring botanists on staff, a hands-on game during the broadcast, a "Little Bella Comes to BRIT" Activity Book, Teacher Packet, and all necessary materials for the broadcast make up this charming program. Go to www.connect2texas.net for program dates and fees.
Upon registration confirmation, an email containing links to downloads will be provided. Because some necessary materials must be sent via snail mail the remaining materials will be mailed to your videoconference site.
