Living in Northeast Arkansas, our students are far removed from life under the sea. Our school is a small rural district serving approximately 2,500 students k-12. The majority of our students have not had the opportunity to travel to the ocean to observe sea life. This project would bring the sea to our classroom! By observing and helping to maintain the salt water aquarium in the classroom students will develop a deeper understanding of the units of study covered in the 8th grade science curriculum. The study of effects of global warming, the interactions and effects of various populations and ecosystems, tides and currents will all be enhanced and deepened through the addition of the marine life aquarium. The goal of the project is to help increase awareness of how student's actions can help protect and preserve these ecosystems rather than continuing current patterns that aid in their destruction.
