My Project

I am requesting to get several specimen slides so that my students can see the examples of invertebrates in our marine biology unit. I have also included the game ecologies so that they can review what they need in order to have a healthy ecosystem. These materials will help me to have visuals for my students to make their content more relatable.

Having these microscope slides will enable my students to see the invertebrates we are learning about without having to travel hours to the ocean.

Additionally, the review game will enable them to build their own ecosystems and see how quickly ecosystems respond to change.
