K - 12 teachers working with AMS Education Programs are "charged" to "infiltrate" weather and ocean education topics into as many formats as possible. This poster display shares some of the experiences Peer Trainers in the New York/New Jersey region have had as they reach out to various audiences. These include: students, district staff development, state and national educational conferences, nature centers, special-interest clubs, and other groups.

Included also are tips to deal with problems that may arise once training ends and presentations begin
