Fish are no different when it comes to a living being's primary objective—to reproduce. They do differ, including from fish species to fish species, in their life cycles, survival tactics and reproductive strategies. After discussion of the life stages of fish, class members group together to research one species in particular and present a poster that charts their fish's unique life cycle and reproduction tactics.
