Gwen Foote was awarded a grant for “Icky Ichthyology”. By creating a classroom saltwater tank, students can study and monitor the diversity and relationships of living ocean life through hands on experiments. Students can collect and analyze data to establish criteria for preserving endangered species and creating a healthy ocean environment. Students will integrate technology with active scientific investigations of marine conservation, while studying live specimens in the classroom aquarium.
