Marine Biodiversity Workshop

On Friday (April 8th), Dave from Atlantaquarium came in to visit our class. We took part in a Marine Biodiversity workshop. First, Dave talked to us about the seas and the ocean and we listed the different types of sea creatures we could name. We then were given a few sea shells and we used a key to identify them. We did the same thing with different types of seaweed. After this, Dave brought in some sea creatures and we were allowed to hold them. He brought in a starfish, a sea urchin and a crab. We had loads of fun and we learned so much about the sea and the ocean!
