Students will understand how fish swim and breathe underwater as well as other adaptations of sea turtles, seals and sea lions.
Students will learn penguin anatomy and their special adaptations.
Students will understand the basic anatomy of what makes a fish a fish and describe characteristics of marine mammals such as seals and sea lions that are found in the Carousel of the Living Sea.
We’ll learn about the kinds of animals that live in urban environments and the challenges they face!

Plunge into a teeming, tropical Philippine coral reef and get a closer look at the eels, crabs, sea stars, and nudibranchs that call it home.
Scientists learn a lot by observing, or watching, the world around them.

In this video, see what our divers see as they glide through the warm, crystal-clear water to check up on the reef’s residents.
The ocean is home to a vast array of animals, partly because there are so many habitats within the sea. In this activity, students will learn about common adaptations seen in three habitats and then make predictions about what animals call that area home.
In Outdoor Science, your student(s) will learn more about the plants and animals living in your very own environment through daily lessons, including hands-on activities, experiments, digital resources and active outside investigations.
Habitats, structures and functions of plants and animals, plant and animal adaptations, interdependence, and impacts of human-caused and natural changes to habitats.
