Habitats are distinguishable by specific characteristics and the organisms that survive there.
Have each student select one organism seen during the visit to the ocean or aquarium, draw its habitat and list its survival needs.

Assign students to cooperative groups and ask each group to select a different habitat. Have each group create a new organism that would be adapted well to that habitat.
