Marine Science Institute!!



The Marine Science Institute visited our classroom with amazing creatures! We spent the morning exploring our own mini tide-pools. We had fantastic instructors who taught us about how to pet fish gently and hold sea stars, urchins, and other incredible sea animals. We learned so much about tides and how these creatures survive the rising and falling tides each and every day.


My favorite animal must've been the decorator crab--it grabs things from the ocean to decorate its back and camouflage itself!!! How awesome is that!?
