Ecología de los arrecifes de coral (Biología marina)
En este curso de cuatro semanas, los alumnos aprenderán todos los detalles de la ecología de los arrecifes de coral, desde las relaciones simbióticas en el arrecife hasta el ciclo de vida de los propios corales. ¡Vamos a sumergirnos en ello!

1-2 horas por semana. Each week, there will be a short quiz for students to complete to test their knowledge. Additional tasks and supplemental materials will be shared in the classroom for students to read, watch, and complete, as desired. Students will be encouraged to join in weekly discussion with classmates (pending section enrollment)!Evaluación

In this exciting four-week course, students will dive deep into the world of coral reefs. Week 1 | Coral, their life cycles, and dependency on algae Week 2 | Types of corals (hard, soft, and deep sea) and reefs (atoll, patch, fringing, and barrier) Week 3 | Symbiotic relationships in the reefs (including clownfish, anemones, cleaner wrasses, spider crabs, and isopods) Week 4 | Reef animals, threats to reef ecosystems, and conservation efforts __________________________________________________________________________________ Each lesson includes a 15-30 minute pre-recorded video on the scheduled topics will be posted for students to watch. In addition, supplemental videos, homework assignments, tasks, fun activities, and discussion questions will be posted. Students who diligently complete the assignments and tasks will get the most out of the course. If you are taking this as a home-school course, please message me to discuss assessment (letter/percentage grades, etc). Please note that this class does have some overlap with my one-time course "Wildlife Tour of the Great Barrier Reef". About half of one week's work overlaps with that class. If students have taken that course, I am happy to give a $5 discount to make up for this.

Lección 3:
Symbiotic relationships in the reefs
This lesson explores symbiotic relationships in coral reefs. We'll learn about mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism, detailing how different organisms benefit, harm, or remain unaffected by their interactions. Examples include zooxanthellae with polyps, clownfish with sea anemones, and various other reef inhabitants. 1 tarea
Lección 4:
Reef animals, threats to reef ecosystems, and conservation efforts
This lesson highlights reef inhabitants and threats to coral reefs. We'll explore exciting reef animals like lionfish, mandarinfish, and moray eels. We will also discuss threats such as coral bleaching and invasive species, emphasizing conservation efforts to protect coral reefs. Otros detalles
Orientación para padres
Climate change is briefly covered as a threat to marine ecosystems. Parasites are discussed and some mild photos are shown. I'm happy to share these if you would like to see in advance for any sensitive learners.
