Upon completion of this class learners will be able to:
-describe how coral reefs are formed.
-describe how hydrothermal vents fuel deep sea ecosystems.
-identify the structures of kelp.
-identify the importance of keystone species.
-identify abiotic factors that affect tide pools.
-identify key adaptations of marine organisms in relationship to their environment. 

I strive to create learner-centered, integrated lessons that relate content to students’ lives.  I believe that my educational background in the field of marine science, professional teaching degree and extensive experiencing developing/delivering educational programs for all ages, will generate a class experience that fosters learners' appreciation for our oceans and environment.   Please see my teacher profile page for more detailed information on my education and teaching experience.
