Science Presentations


Hello Class! Our science presentations are coming up. Remember, we need to talk about one undersea animal (ex. what they eat, where in the ocean they live, etc.) and adaptations they've developed. For example, a whale's fin is used for steering! Here is a site that may be helpful for you. Also, check out the other sites I previously posted!


Parents, here are the curriculum guidelines for this project to help your children.

- investigate the ways in which a variety of animals adapt to their environment and/or to changes in their environment, using various methods.

- use scientific inquiry/research skills and knowledge acquired from previous investigations, to investigate the basic needs, characteristics, behaviour, and adaptations of an animal of their choice.

- use appropriate science and technology vocabulary, including life cycle, migration, adaptation, body coverings, and classify, in oral and written communication

- describe an adaptation as a characteristic body part, shape, or behaviour that helps a plant or animal survive in its environment.
