A Teacher's Guide to A Swim Through the Sea

Based on young Kristin Joy Pratts best-selling illustrated tour of the sea, this guide explores many ocean creatures using a hands-on approach while also promoting self-esteem and cooperation. Its lesson plans expand on the marine habitat while also presenting skills for living. The hermit crab, for example, is not only an example of camouflage but also an animal that periodically outgrows its home, and children explore the idea of homes and neighbors. It includes mind-mapping suggestions and much more.
