Sea Creature Creation

Discuss with students: YouTube serves many purposes, including entertainment, education, and learning. Today, we will be watching scientifically backed videos with real information from the Monterey Bay Aquarium! Inform students that we will be using the information discussed to create our very own sea creatures. Together, view 1-2 'Into the Deep' videos.

Students may take notes to remember key features and details for the creature they plan to design. Using Pages, students will write about their creature and design its appearance using shapes and drawing tools.

This lesson promotes students' creativity by allowing them to learn about existing deep-sea creatures. They are given ownership to their learning by taking their favorite details, write about and create their ideal deep-sea creature using Pages shapes and drawing tools.

Super learning lesson - I like that first the students learn about and then they take some creative ownership. Very nice!
