AtCup Kids Resources for at home and remote learning © Atlantic Cup
In times like these, we recognize the tremendous amount of stress on parents and teachers to keep kids engaged and learning in a remote environment.
To help alleviate some of that stress, Atlantic Cup Kids presented by 11th Hour Racing has a variety of worksheets on marine life, barrier islands, weather and glaciers that are geared for children from age 8-13 that are easily accessible via atlanticcup.org/kids
In addition, Captain Dave, who has won the Atlantic Cup and sailed solo around the world will be providing his in-school lessons via video which will be published on The Atlantic Cup Kids Facebook page and Portal. We will also be posting interviews from past Atlantic Cup competitors on all things about what it's like to sail offshore (what you eat, when you sleep, what it's like to surf through waves).
We will endeavor to post a new video every Tuesday and Thursday at 11a ET.
To access the materials, please visit atlanticcup.org/kidsportal We're adding more resources as they're created - so keep checking back.
And if you or your students or children have questions for Captain Dave, please send them to us at and we'll be sure to answer them in the forthcoming videos.
