For more than a decade, writer Mark Newman has been one of the busiest authors in North America, educating and entertaining students about invasive species.

As the author of four
Sooper Yooper books, Mark enthusiastically shares the story of the Great Lakes and the hidden dangers of sea lamprey, zebra mussels, Asian carp and other invasive species (in addition to highlighting a variety of water quality issues). With his energetic and effusive presenting style, he has been engaging students of all ages at schools throughout the Great Lakes region and beyond, traveling to towns and cities of all sizes in Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Ontario. Since its inception, the Sooper Yooper program has been presented to more than 190,000 students during 828 school visits in all eight Great Lakes border states and Canada.

Mark's school visits offer grade-appropriate invasive species programs which highlight the work of real-life scientists and the efforts of these everyday environmental superheroes to make a difference through collaboration and teamwork. Preserved specimen in his program include sea lamprey, zebra mussels, quagga mussels, spiny water flea, rusty crayfish and the emerald ash borer.

If you are an educator or an environmental champion interested in booking a tour visit, please send an email to newman.mark@mac.com. Mark's visit will be tailored to your school's needs, whether it's a single program or multiple presentations in the same day. Due to its interactive nature, each one-hour program is ideally presented to groups of 100 or less, but 4-5 presentations in the same day are possible. A projector with sound and a screen is requested for each program.

During the pandemic, Mark launched a Sooper Yooper channel on YouTube, offering short, informative videos about different invasive species. Based on material from his popular school program, each 4-8 minute video (numbered as "cases") focuses on a specific subject related to various environmental threats.

Quiz questions are available for teachers to assess their students' comprehension of the material presented. Additional videos are planned, with the list of potential subjects always growing.
