National Geographic Xpeditions

Ocean Literacy Principles:

 OLP#5: The ocean supports a great diversity of life and ecosystems.

Overview

Students will pretend they have just returned from a year in the Arctic or Antarctic. By exploring web sites about expeditions to these regions and creating posters illustrating what they could have seen or done, students will have a better understanding of what life would be like in Polar Region without actually visiting them.
