Classroom Preparation The ability to be able to use resources to identify organisms and
sample an area using authentic scientific ecological monitoring techniques
are essential skills for every scientist. The scientific habits of
mind developed while learning these skills, such as the ability to
utilize available resources to research organism identities, will
benefit all students regardless of their career aspirations. However,
the task of identifying unknown organisms and sampling a strange area
can be challenging, to both you and your students. We have several
lessons designed to introduce your class to intertidal organisms that
allow you to learn with your students. We have also developed sampling
lessons that introduce this challenging concept in increments.
