  • Join to access all included materials

Seven pages of fascinating reading on marine debris preface the activities in this lesson plan. Four different activities are employed to simulate how the debris is distributed in the ocean and along beaches. Early ecology learners classify, collect data, graph, and answer observation questions. Unfortunately the student handouts to these fabulous activities are of poor quality. Recreate them for the best presentation.
