Save the Seals
In this lesson, students learn about seals. They will listen to a story about orcas and what they eat.
Next, they plan and build an island for the seals to get away from the orcas.
Finally, students revise their build if they could not get the seals to balance on the island.
Students end this challenge by writing about what orcas can eat now that seals are not available.
