Let this sink in: oceans cover more than 70% of the planet! This video teaches many facts about the ocean using creative graphs to convey the vastness of its features. The ocean contains the longest mountain chain, the tallest mountain, the deepest canyon, the tallest waterfall, and the greatest numbers and variety of species. This would be an outstanding anticipatory set for your oceanography unit. Find links to additional resources and questions for discussion on the publisher's website.
