This is a fun biology class that looks at animal evolution and development through the odd and strange adaptive features that emerged. This class will focus on the amazing and awesome animal life in the kelp forests around the world's oceans to show how animals adapt to their environment.  
We will discuss a variety of life, from sea urchins to sea otters, to get a better understanding of our planet Earth, and how we all have adapted to life here. Students will take away several fun facts about the wildlife of the the kelp forests all around the world, and have an interactive experience discussing life with the class. Students will learn:
-About the specific animals that are only found in kelp forests.
-What a kelp forest is.
-Adaptions are a change or the process of change by which an organism or species becomes better suited to its environment. This can be all sorts of things, like feeding adaptions, camouflage, super senses, or physical adaptions! 
-Feeding adaptions can be that an animal eats in a specific food, or in a specific way. 
-Camouflage is when an animal looks a certain way to hide from either predators or prey. 
-Some animals even have super senses that are part of their adaption utility belt! Certain snakes can sense heat, some sharks can sense electricity, and owls are famous for their hearing! These are all examples of how animals use super senses to adapt to their environment. 
-Some animals have physical adaptations that help them survive. This is like how a cheetah can run super-fast, or how some fish have hooked fins to help them climb trees!
