Beach Season: Time to Learn About the Ocean

Lessons and Activities for All Grades Summer has unofficially kicked off, though most grade schools have a couple of weeks until the year wraps up. With the beach on many kids’ minds, it’s a good time to explore topics related to the ocean. Teachers, you can find lessons and activities for all grade levels at these sites from NOAA, the government’s ocean experts: Estuary Education, with high school and middle school curricula about estuaries, where freshwater rivers and saltwater oceans meet and diverse ecosystems thrive. National Ocean Service Education, with lesson plans for middle- and high schoolers in math and the sciences, a 4th-6th grade curriculum about coral reefs, and projects for younger kids about ocean exploration. Parents: Keep your younger kids entertained with these activity books (PDF) and games.  For your career-minded children, show them this video about life as a marine biologist.   Subscriber Services: Manage Preferences | Unsubscribe | Help If you have questions, contact us.
