Because the Sea Savers know this to be true, we've sent over a few representatives (including Bianca, Maria Jose, and Laura) to the 5th grade classrooms. They touched over the basic facts about coral reefs and lionfish and were surprised to find out how much the kids already knew! They've been studying these topics in their own classroom in order to study how ecosystems work and why it is important to protect them. There were some trivia questions and silly games to help them remember which kind of coral was staghorn and elkhorn, and they had a blast! Keeping the 5th graders under control wasn't always easy, but they were mostly a very attentive and active audience.
