STEM Unit: Sharks by The Numbers

I Stock 1399799270

This unit was developed by Catherine Skehill for 3rd grade class through her 2018 Teacher-in-Residence at The Atlantic White Shark Conservancy.

In this unit for students in elementary school age, students will understand White Sharks using data. By the numbers students will understand: sharks life cycle, the traits that led to their success as a species, shark tracking around Cape Cod, and Great White shark populations around the world. Students integrate the information they learned to create a product that uses numbers to increase Shark “Awareness” in our local community.
