Students will dive into the microscopic world of plankton, the unsung heroes of the food web. During class, we will discuss the different types of plankton that inhabit freshwater and marine habitats, environmental impacts, and so much more! The class will be conducted with an engaging in-class discussion accompanied by a Powerpoint presentation and several different Youtube videos showcasing how the different types of plankton move and react in their microscopic environment.

After class is compleated, students will have a better understanding of the microscopic world of plankton and why they are so important to our world's food web.

Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Kennedi Travis and I have a passion for passing on knowledge! I have a Bachelor's Degree in Wildlife Management from Dakota Wesleyan University in Mitchell, SD, and worked for the state of South Dakota as a Fisheries Technician for three years. I also participated in Spider Studies and DWU for two years identifying different types of wolf spiders found in the state of South Dakota. I have vast experience volunteering in local classrooms on my days off.
Science, particularly Biology, is one of my favorite things to teach and I also have a special love for history. I value teaching learners of all ages and feel that knowledge is our most valuable resource.
I look forward to teaching your learner with fun and educational classes using science and facts. Thank you very much.
