Learners examine the cause-and-effect relationship between tides and the rocky coast ecosystem. They complete a worksheet that illustrates the intertidal zone.

Students research the diverse animal and plant life that inhabit the intertidal zones along the Pacific rocky coast. As students progress through this lesson, they begin to recognize distinct behaviors, adaptations, and characteristics...

Almost 200 slides make this a vast collection! It is a quirky collection, titled "Marine Fisheries Management," but having little to do with that occupation. What you will find are two-toned blue backgrounds with no pictures, but a few...

Young scholars explore oceanography by completing science worksheets. In this tide pools activity, students discuss the forces of the tide pools, the animals that live within them, and the impact they have on the rest of the ocean. Young...

Students investigate marine life by researching aquatic organisms on the Internet. In this oceanography activity, students monitor algae and animals of the ocean by identifying their population and habitat on data sheet ID cards....

Students discover tidal pools.  In this oceanographic lesson, students observe the tides of the earth and the creatures that inhabit the intertidal zones.  Students role-play the tidal zones by portraying themselves as animals...

Students produce a high tide. In this Marine Biology lesson, students visit a tide pool to investigate the creatures response to changes in the tide. Students discuss the results of their experimentation.

Students recognize marine organisms and differentiate between plankton and nekton.  For this investigative instructional activity students create a concept map using their list of terms and study marine life forms. 

Students explore ocean habitats. For this oceanic environment lesson, students research various habitats in the ocean. Then, in a jigsaw format, students teach others in the class about the habitat they researched.

Students review the terms and concepts: evolution, selection, biotic, and abiotic factors. They come up with hypotheses about limpet shell types based on what we discuss about intertidal environments. Students use ratios to compare...

In this ocean tides worksheet, students read 2 pages about ocean tides and answer true or false questions about it. Students complete 10 questions.

In this ocean water and life worksheet, students match the vocabulary term with the correct definition. Also, students answer questions by deciding if the statements are true or false. Finally, students complete concepts maps while using...

Students study the diversity of marine life and their habitats.  In this aquatic ecosystems lesson students complete a lab activity and experiment. 

Students explore the concept of environmental stewardship. In this science lesson, students investigate the effects of oil spills and brainstorm ideas to help companies avoid them as they create models to demonstrate their attributes and...

In this biomes worksheet, students review the characteristics of aquatic biomes and terrestrial biomes. This worksheet has 12 fill in the blank, 6 multiple choice, and 4 short answer questions.

Students investigate the environment by participating in a class trip. In this pond ecosystem lesson, students define a list of vocabulary terms associated with ponds such as invertebrate and metamorphosis. Students attend a field trip...

Students explore the topic of oil pollution and how it affects the global ocean. They discuss oil spills in recent history and use problem solving skills to decide what strategies could be used to actually clean up an oil spill. Students...
