Coral Reef EcoArt

Coral Reefs are ecosystems that fish and many tropical water marine species depend on for food and shelter. This Library NExT class dives into what life is like on a coral reef in Hawaii. Students will suit up for a virtual snorkel or scuba dive and learn the basics of scuba equipment. The class highlights the major taxonomic groups, and teaches how to identify what kind of creature you might be looking at (or what is looking at you!). Budding oceanographers create a diorama full of colorful fish and invertebrates they can take home. No prior experience is necessary.
