A Virtual Trip to the Sea

Unit I students in Amy Kulhavik and Joan Claybourn’s classes learned all about life under the sea during a class in which the students participated in a Zoom call with representative Amanda Komarek from the Sea Coast Science Center in New Hampshire. “As we explore the Northeast region of the United States in Unit I, one thing the students wanted to learn about were animals from that area,” said Kulhavik. During their Zoom call, the students were able to see crabs, lobster, and sea stars. The students discussed the habitats needed for several sea animals, as well as the anatomy and eating habits of the animals. “The students had fun learning about some of the sea creatures from the Northeast region and are looking forward to visiting that region of the country in person one day,” said Kulhavik.
