Description
Class Experience
Did you know that a group of jellyfish is called a swarm, a bloom, or a smack? Many jellyfish are bioluminescent. They emit light to attract prey or distract predators. In the ocean, bioluminescence is not as rare as you might think. In fact, most types of animals, from bacteria to sharks, include some bioluminescent material. Each week we will explore the coral reefs around the world and discover dangerous sea creatures, giant squids, mouth brooding fish and bioluminescent marine life. ...
This comprehensive science course meets the following Standards. SC.4.L.16.3 Recognize that animal behaviors may be shaped by heredity and learning. SC.4.L.16.4 Compare and contrast the major stages in the life cycles SC.4.L.17.3 Trace the flow of energy from the Sun as it is transferred along the food chain through the producers to the consumers. SC.4.L.17.4 Recognize ways plants and animals, including humans, can impact the environment SC.3.L.15.1 Classify animals into major groups (mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, arthropods, vertebrates and invertebrates, those having live births and those which lay eggs) according to their physical characteristics and behaviors.
I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. I have a deep love for Marine animals and marine preservation as I was born and raised in Florida. As I visit the beach regularly with my family I am constantly reminded how beautiful and delicate Marine life is and I hope to educate others about Marine Biology. I hope to see you in the classroom. - Mrs. Lori
