Wetland Communities

Bring your curriculum to life-investigate freshwater aquatic macroinvertebrates, mammals, and plants using science tools. Explore unique life cycles and aquatic adaptations, identify common species, and understand the characteristics of freshwater ecosystems. Students engage directly with organisms and biofacts, practice science communication skills and speak from evidence with one another, and grasp how adaptations to water allow survival.
