South Caicos SFS Outreach – Marine Plants – Fall 2019

Continuing our special connection with the South Caicos School for Field Studies, a group of visiting students came with 4 activities to teach our Years 3-7 all about the question…

Why are marine plants important to coastal and open ocean habitats of the TCI?

Through games, quizzes, and presentations, together they looked closer at different coastal habitats…sandy and rocky shores, mangrove and salt ponds, seagrass meadows and coral reef.  They linked animals that lived in each habitat and learned about the invasive Sargassum algal.

It was a wonderful morning of activities, with both young and older students gaining much from the interaction.  Thank you SFS – we are so fortunate that you continue to come and visit.  We look forward to seeing you again in April with more knowledge to share.
