Ocean life includes the plants, animals, and other organisms that live in the salt water of the ocean.
OCEAN EMPORIUM by Susie Brooks explores the many creatures that live in the ocean. Each two-page spread features an overview and several examples of a particular species such as crabs, jellyfish, or sharks. Both the common and scientific names are provided along with a simple, colorful illustration of each creature.
Use the book to brainstorm questions for ocean life inquiries. Then, use the website for photographs and more in-depth information.
OCEAN from the Smithsonian Institution provides hundreds of articles related to ocean topics. The ocean life section of the website will be of particular interest to students conducting inquiries related to marine life. The educators section contains dozens of lesson plans to extend the experience.
