    2. Under the Sea and Ocean Life Subject Matter: Science Grade: Kindergarten

    3. Under the Sea and Ocean Life Essential Questions: 1. How do marine life and the ocean/sea help us know about the past? 2. Why is it important to know about the ocean/sea and the Marine life that our Earth provides? Unit Questions: 1. Can you name all four of the oceans? 2. What would happen if we didnt have any oceans or underwater animals? 3. Create your own sea creature.

    4. Learning Objectives 1. The student will be able to identify all four of the oceans when looking at a map of the world with 100% accuracy. 2. The student will be able to categorize certain marine animals in their proper groups by visually and mentally recognizing the animal by the end of the unit. 3. The student will be able to have an understanding of why our oceans and seas are important on Earth by the end of the unit.

    5. Activities Science Did you know that it is easier to float in the ocean than in the swimming pool. Do you know why? Salt. The Ocean is full of salt. Salt water can hold up more than plain water. That is why you can float in the ocean more easily. Lets try this experiment to see for ourselves Materials: wide mouth plastic jar warm water salt raw potato measuring cup spoon What to do: -Pour 1 1/2 cups warm water in the jar. Add 1/3 cup salt. Stir until all the salt is gone. Add another 1 1/2 cups of water. Pour it over the back of a spoon into the jar. Pour SLOWLY so the two liquids do not mix tog. Slowly put the potato into the jar. Do NOT drop it. Results: Potato sinks-but stops halfway. Salt water is heavier than plain water, so it stays on the bottom. Plain water floats on top of salt water. You cannot see the difference though. The potato is heavier than plain water. But potato is lighter than the salt water. That is why it sank only half way. It is floating on top of the salt water.
