Join Saltwater Studies for a fun, interactive virtual tour of the ocean world! This virtual field trip will focus on the fishes of the ocean.

What to Expect: A professional marine biologist will provide students with a graphically infused overview of fish anatomy and habitats and then lead them on a guided underwater tour of the ocean using a public web cam. The instructor will narrate and discuss the species seen in the web cam providing fun facts regarding tropical reef fish. The virtual field trip will conclude with an interactive quiz game that will allow students to compete against each other to see who can remember the most information from the day’s discussion.

Who Can Attend: This event is targeted towards middle school students.

Cost: $12 per student

System Requirements: This event will be conducted via Zoom. You must have the Zoom app installed on your computer or mobile device prior to the scheduled event in order to participate. In addition, if you are using a mobile device to view the tour, it would be helpful to have the Kahoot! app installed to make participation in the interactive quiz easier.

How to Join: Participants will be provided with a reminder email 24-hours before the event is scheduled to begin that includes details on how to access the Zoom meeting.
