A spectacular ocean view – marine mural lesson plan.
Biology/Life Science Activity – Grades 8-12
Art and science converge beautifully in this activity that helps students bring the complex natural systems of the ocean to life in brilliant detail.
High schoolers will research and create a visual representation of food webs, zone communities, and natural and human threats in undersea ecosystems. Their final projects can be scored on the 72-point scale included in the lesson plan.
As always, if you have any questions about lesson plans or anything else, just ask the Ward’s Science Plus Us team at sciencehelp@vwr.com. Our in-house scientists and technicians are ready to answer even the toughest inquiries.
