Cover the sides or walls of the area with the students' ocean murals slightly overlapped. I also created an ocean library at one of the tables. This included every ocean book I could get my hands on. We also read at least one ocean book a day as a whole class. At the art table students created ocean life on paper, cut each one out, and taped them to the ocean murals.
Students can take turns acting out life in the ocean in the ocean area.
You can also create an Ocean vs. Freshwater graph. This graph consists of two long columns, one for things that need the ocean and one for things that need freshwater. They may find that to most living creatures oceans and freshwater may be equally important. Web Site Teacher. Net Web Services sm , a division of Teachers Web sm .
