This lesson will focus on ecosystems! While exploring in Aurelia, you may have seen two different marine ecosystems - the pelagic ocean and coral reefs. While exploring them, you will have learned about the different animals that call those habitats home and the adaptations they have to do so! This lesson will expand on what ecosystems are, how organisms adapt to their ecosystems, apply that knowledge to a kelp forest ecosystem, and connect this lesson to conservation applications.

Students in Grades 3 & 4 at Chain Exploration Center developed an understanding of the important role that pollinators play in human food systems as well as in native habitats. Students also learned about the stressors, many of them human-influenced, that are associated with the decline in pollinator populations. Students also learned about ways that humans can improve pollinator habitat. The culmination of student learning was an environmental stewardship project: the installation of a pollinator garden on the school grounds. What follows is an outline of the project process and a discussion of the resources that were used.
