Three-fourths of the Earth s surface is covered by water. Seventy-one percent of that water is contained in oceans.
Water is a familiar resource, and one with which young children have had much experience.
Our Watery World presents learning experiences for students in the study of oceanography. It includes activities to introduce the nature of freshwater and saltwater. In addition, students will be able to explore the life of creatures who call water their home the saltwater organism, brine shrimp. By observing the hatching and maturation of these tiny organisms, students not only gain an appreciation of the importance and use of water in sustaining life, but of the wonders of life in general, as can only be attained by the close and individual study of a living creature.
