Ocean Lab - Grades 4 to Adult


Students discover the amazing ecosystem of the Rocky Pacific Coast in this program. Using live animals, keys, and the scientific method, students focus on five different groups of tidepool invertebrates and fish, their interrelationships, and their ecology. A closing activity relates human impact issues and solutions for this habitat to the students' own local aquatic environment. Ocean Lab programs can be adapted to different grade levels to cover basic concepts or more advanced content. Although designed to stand alone, the program is also an excellent supplement to a field study program such as the Discovery Voyage or Tidepool Expedition. This program can accommodate groups of up to 50 students.
